OUR CURRICULUM

EIN CWRICWLWM

The curriculum at Cwmbran High School embraces everything the pupils
experience at school. Our fundamental aim is to meet the individual needs
of all pupils across the full ability range by delivering a differentiated and
supported curriculum that sets high expectations, encourages active
learning, delivers academic success, and builds self-worth.
Designed to meet the broad range and needs that pupils have within the
context of our community, our curriculum is reviewed annually to ensure
that it is effective in meeting the needs of our context. We ensure that all are
challenged and stretched through curriculum and enrichment opportunities
whilst ensuring that those who need additional help are supported to make
progress and achieve.
