English
The English curriculum at Heritage High School is varied, diverse and increasingly challenging. It aims to allow students to progress through the Key Stages – improving their knowledge and skills in the use, understanding and analysis of the English language as well as immersing them into a range of literature though history. Our passionate teachers deliver engaging lessons whilst challenging students and empowering them to achieve highly. The breadth of the curriculum will teach students to read for pleasure, read critically, write factually and creatively and debate literary issues that link to the world around them. Our students are taught in broadly mixed ability groups throughout Year 7 and are placed into ability focused groups in Year 8 and 9 which are evaluated at our regular assessment points.
