•

Community Volunteering and Work Experience enable students to gain valuable new insights and skills.

Religious Education and Collective Worship Assemblies take place regularly along with personal mentor meetings. Assemblies may be taken by the Headteacher, staff or students, are non-denominational and are intended to give an opportunity for collective worship, consideration of moral issues, personal reflection and the celebration of success and achievement.

All Year 7-11 girls attend Religious Education lessons. Religious Studies is studied by all students to GCSE and can also be taken to AS/A Level.

Additional Educational Needs Highworth is committed to meeting the needs of all our students irrespective of disability, gender or race. Students with special needs are identified and provision is made for their inclusion into all areas of the curriculum wherever possible whilst recognising the need to liaise with outside agencies to offer relevant and positive support.

Provision for More Able Students The nature of the school’s intake, based on the 11+ selection procedure, results in us having many very able students and we do much to develop their potential both within the curriculum and as extensions to it. There are numerous opportunities in all of our creative subjects (Art, Dance, PE, Music, Drama) as well as a wide range of school trips and visits in most curriculum areas. Furthermore, we offer extensive support to a growing number of students accessing places at Oxbridge and Russell Group universities.

Students in Key Stages 3 and 4 seeking early leadership opportunities can apply to become a Community or Subject Ambassador. They must meet at least one of the set criteria which include high academic achievement, commitment and enthusiasm. The strategy allows students to develop their expertise and build the skills necessary for Sixth Form Prefect roles.

Our Reward System encourages all students to develop approaches and attitudes which: contribute to the school community; develop independence; and lead to successful lifelong learning. We congratulate students on their successes and celebrate their achievements by awarding them with a Bronze, Silver and Gold Superstar Certificate which can lead to extension activities (within and outside school), conferences and workshops.
