Personal Development
At Sir William Stanier School, our values of Community, Courage and Opportunity underpin everything we do. Personal Development is delivered through our GROWTH Framework, which sits at the heart of school life and shapes the experiences we provide for every student.
Through the GROWTH Framework, personal development is woven throughout school life – from form time and assemblies to PSHE, enrichment activities and charity work. Our curriculum is carefully designed to be age-appropriate and relevant, helping students explore important topics and develop the knowledge, skills and character needed to thrive in the modern world.
Students benefit from a wide range of enriching experiences, including:
· Extra-curricular clubs and activities
· Visits to the Houses of Parliament
· Trips to local colleges and universities
· Theatre visits and school productions
· Guest speakers and visiting professionals, including chefs
· Community and charity projects
· Opportunities to meet and work with our local MP
These are just some examples of the many opportunities available to our students, with new experiences and activities regularly taking place throughout the school year.
Through the GROWTH Framework, everyday school experiences help students broaden their horizons, build confidence and discover their potential, enabling them to become active members of their community and the wider world.
