We encourage every learner to develop an understanding of the ethical, environmental and social impact of scientific discoveries and current research. We support learners to acquire the necessary literacy, numeracy and investigative skills to process data and make unbiased factual judgements. Through a spiral curriculum, we ensure that key concepts are woven into and built upon throughout the key aspects of the National Curriculum. This ensures that through their learning journey at Ninestiles, An Academy, our learners have the knowledge, skills and character to be fully prepared for success at KS4 and beyond.
