At Cambian Devon School we offer a bespoke curriculum specifically tailored to promote student success and progression.

Our curriculum aims to:

• Enable all students to learn and develop their skills to the best of their ability.

• Promote a positive attitude towards learning, so that students enjoy coming to school, and acquire a solid basis for lifelong learning.

• Enable students to be creative and to develop their own thinking.

• Enable students to be positive citizens in society.

• Help students understand the importance of truth and fairness, so that they grow up committed to equal opportunities for all.

• Enable students to have respect for themselves and high self-esteem, and to be able to live and work co-operatively with others.

• Support students to become confident individuals who are physically, emotionally and socially healthy.

• Provide students with the opportunity to be responsible citizens who make a positive contribution to society and embrace change.

• Engage students in managing risk positively together with their own wellbeing.

Curriculum Enrichment

We actively promote opportunities for students to take part in a wide range of experiences that broaden their skills and knowledge through educational activities and trips, personal projects, community activities, work experience and volunteering opportunities both on and off site. Students have taken part in tailored workshops from external speakers, outdoor education experiences, first aid training and team building exercises delivered by skilled providers as well as our own team. Students are encouraged to make positive contributions to the wider world and society throughout the school year including volunteering at a local homeless shelter and taking part in community litter picking. Subjects across the curriculum offer school trips and extra-curricular opportunities as part of their curriculum offer.

Learning Journeys

Our learning journeys are our school long term planning frameworks, they are displayed in all of our classrooms as a visual guide for our students to show them where they are on their learning pathways and prepare them for for the next steps in their journey.
