Worldviews and Modern Issues – Learning Journey

Curriculum opportunities: Key Stage 3

Curriculum implementation:

As an Academy we have a range of clear standards and expectations of our pupils however each subject area has its own individual practices and habits that ensure that it can function to its optimum.

Curriculum delivery: 

At Vale of York Academy, we take our Worldviews and Modern Issues lessons very seriously with a duty of safeguarding to uphold. The content covered through years 7-11 can be very delicate topics which is why we treat these lessons with care and professionalism. During this lesson, students are signposted to support should they need this. This support could be anything from mental health helplines to local pharmacies. Anything to ensure that what is delivered in the classroom, can be utilised in the real world.
