English

At Utopia we recognise that key skills in English such as spelling, reading, writing, and speaking and listening play a fundamental role in the life chances of our young people.

We therefore ensure that all learners reach their potential through challenging teaching and learning activities at the appropriate level. Staff maintain high levels of expectations for individuals and support learners to explore English as a subject and its wider curriculum framework.

Young people are encouraged to explore and analyse a wide range of texts, that aim to develop their individual tastes for different genres and styles. Through discussions and 1:1 support, learners gain opportunities to express themselves in a confident, creative, imaginative, and articulate manner in a supportive environment.

In their writing, learners develop their skills of sentence construction, story writing and recording of information, with regard to grammatical and structural conventions, at the same time developing a wide vocabulary and the ability to write for different purposes.

Studying this qualification will help students:

  • Addressing skills gaps and building confidence
  • Preparing them for GCSE qualifications, through sessions that are tailored towards their individual needs

Our curriculum provides tailored intervention in Maths and English, addressing skill gaps by boosting confidence to accelerate learning.
