It deepens vocabulary, grammar, and text structure while embedding reading, writing, and oracy across units in line with the National Curriculum. The plan supports GCSE, Entry Level, and Functional Skills through targeted revision, recall activities, and integrated literature language knowledge. A SEMH-focused emphasis prioritises accessible oracy, confident communication, and preparation for assessment through a “Knowledge Bomb” approach and structured topic teaching.","English Curriculum Mapping  \n\n| Year | Introduction | Gateway 500/ Tier 3 Vocabulary |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| 10 | At KS4, students build on prior learning through a spaced and interleaved curriculum, deepening knowledge and refining key skills in\u003Cbr>preparation for GCSE, Entry Level, and Functional Skills qualifications.\u003Cbr>Reading, writing, and oracy are embedded across all units, with a continued focus on vocabulary, grammar, and text structure, in line with the National Curriculum. Students engage with a broad range of texts and tasks that support both academic success and real-life communication. As an SEMH setting, we place high value on oracy, providing regular opportunities for students to develop confidence in speaking and listening. A colour-coded key distinguishes between English Language and Literature, with all learning aimed at equipping students for both exams and life beyond school. To ensure full coverage and reinforce learning, language revision, targeted tasks, and regular recall activities are woven into the literature units. This integrated approach supports retention, builds connections between skills, and prepares students thoroughly for\u003Cbr>assessment of all qualifications.\u003Cbr>Literature Language Knowledge Bombs At KS4, students engage critically with a range of set texts from the AQA GCSE English Literature syllabus, including Macbeth, A Christmas Carol, Lord of the Flies, and the poetry cluster on Power and Conflict.\u003Cbr>In line with the National Curriculum, students develop skills in analysis, interpretation, and evaluation of language, form, and structure. They explore themes, characterisation, and context to deepen their understanding of each text. The curriculum supports students to express informed personal responses, develop close reading skills, and build confidence in written and verbal communication. Our SEMH approach emphasises accessibility and relevance, ensuring students are prepared for examination requirements and broader life skills. At KS4, students develop the reading and writing skills needed for GCSE, Entry Level, and Functional Skills qualifications. In line with the National Curriculum, they learn to read a wide range of texts with understanding, exploring language, structure, and purpose. Writing is taught alongside reading, with students learning to express ideas clearly, accurately, and appropriately for different audiences and purposes. They are supported to plan, draft, and edit their work, building confidence and control overtone, structure, and grammar. Across all pathways, the focus is on developing effective communication—both analytical and creative—while preparing students for real-world literacy demands beyond the classroom. The 'Knowledge Bomb' delivers powerful knowledge that enriches cultural capital and exposes students to big ideas, influential literature, and essential concepts across subjects. These ‘Knowledge Bombs’ help our curriculum tell the ‘Story of English’ from famous speeches to famous and influential texts. They're designed to enhance knowledge, stretch thinking, and give students access to the academic depth and cultural awareness. Through high-level content and cross-curricular links, it equips students to engage confidently with the world around them. | Students revisit and build on key vocabulary from earlier years, with a focus on understanding and using language confidently across all pathways – GCSE, Entry Level, and Functional Skills. Vocabulary is taught in a clear, supportive way and applied in real-life and exam contexts, helping students communicate effectively and prepare for life beyond school. |\n\n\n|  | Our Topics | Key Knowledge | Key Skills |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  | Poetry\u003Cbr>1st Visit\u003Cbr>Part 1 Literature Paper 2 | Students will be introduced to the key messages and themes presented across the first half of the AQA Poetry Anthology.
