Becoming a Prefect | Pupil Leadership Groups At The Westgate School, we are very proud of our Pupil Leadership opportunities. Pupil leaders are the very best ambassadors for the school and are the embodiment of our core principles and values. Pupil leaders are often called on to lead at school events such as Open Evening and Partners in Learning Evenings as well as supporting concerts, Year 6 Taster Days, Summer Camp and a wide range of other school events. ​ Pupils may become a Junior Prefect from the Summer Term of Year 9 and again in Year 10. Year 10 Prefects may then also apply to join the Senior Council in Year 11. ​ Our current Senior Council Leaders are: Lead Pupil All Through - Alora Head Boy - Joe Head Girl - Scarlett Deputy Head Pupil All Through - Jasmine Deputy Head Boy - Tom Deputy Head Girl - Poppy ​ School Council and Other Pupil Leadership Opportunities There are so many other opportunities to develop Pupil Leadership skills at The Westgate School. As well as our prefect team, our House system requires House Captains for each of the four Houses: Air, Earth, Fire and Water. Tutor Captains are also elected for each tutor group. Along with Senior Prefects, tutor captains sit on the School Council which meet every half term. Representatives from ECO Group, Charity Group, Curriculum Group, GSA and Well-Being Group are also invited to join the school council, so that a range of views from the pupil community are expressed and shared using this democratic forum. ​ The Westgate Contract ​ Prefect applications Senior Prefect applications: Applications to become part of the Senior Leadership team for the next year, open in February , including Head Boy, Head Girl and Head Pupil All Through. ​ Junior Prefect applications: To become a prefect, pupils from Years 9 and 10 may apply during the Spring Term . Experience and activities that would suggest you would be successful: Active involvement in the the school is essential if you are to be a member of the team. You can show this through being part of the school DofE programme , or having evidence of being part of one of our Leadership groups (e.g. Charity Group). Finally, having a Westgate Community Challenge badge is a sure sign you have engaged with us over the last few years and chould certainly be part of your application. ​ The qualities needed to be a prefect: Please refer to these qualities, along with your contribution to the school community, when you are applying for the role. ​ Integrity Integrity means honesty and more. It refers to having strong internal guiding principles that one does not compromise. It means treating others as you would wish to be treated. Integrity promotes trust, and not much is accomplished without trust. Communication Communication refers to both interpersonal communications between the individual and others both in the team and across the school community. A good leader needs to be proficient in both the communication that informs and actively listen to others. ​ Relationship building Relationships develop good interpersonal and group communications. A leader who likes dealing with people, who can initiate and deepen relationships with others, has a great leadership advantage. This is a leader who can build a team and build up trust among the team. ​ Persuasion The ability to influence others and cause them to move in a particular direction is a highly important skill in leadership. An ability to be persuasive is directly related to how much people trust you and how good your communication and relationships are. ​ Adaptability Adaptability and flexibility in not being bound by a plan are important success factors. A leader must move easily from one set of circumstances (the plan) to the next (if the plan is not going as expected) and take them all in their stride, even when the circumstances are unexpected. The good leader has to embrace change and see it as opportunity. Teamwork Teamwork is an important and often neglected part of being a prefect. Our community has a team of prefects who are part of and leaders within the school. No one person can do it all. That’s why a team, comprised of others with different skill sets, is essential. A leader must know how to build and nurture such a team. ​ Decision-making A leader must be able to wade through information, comprehend what is relevant, make a well-considered decision, and take action based on that decision. Once a team decision has been made the individual must fully support the group in carrying out the actions related. Pupil Leadership Groups ​The Westgate offers every pupil the opportunity to participate in a leadership role during their time at The Westgate, being part of our commitment to 'Rights, Respect and Responsibility' across our school.

Our Curriculum - an overview Curriculum In-depth Primary Curriculum Learn More Year 7 and 8 our KS3 Curriculum Learn More Year 9 Greater Depth & Increased Breadth Learn More Year 10 and 11 - GCSE Courses Learn More Curriculum Intent The Westgate School’s curriculum reflects two principles: firstly, acquisition – where pupils are taught to acquire the knowledge, understanding and skills in each subject domain in order to apply this learning to new situations; and secondly, participation – that pupils need to develop the skills to engage positively in different situations. In doing so, pupils further their learning and sense of belonging. In some subjects, such as Science, the emphasis lies more heavily on the acquisition of knowledge whereas in a subject such as Drama, the skills of participation pre-dominate. In every lesson we expect adults to consider how best to facilitate pupils’ active participation in their learning – including “thinking hard” – and, to use the School’s core approach to teaching and learning so that pupils experience a coherent learning journey. ​ In every subject, leaders are designing and evolving their curriculums based on the golden threads of learning from Year R to Year 11 in their particular domain. Planning is based on clear objectives, using misconceptions as opportunities for rich learning and, facilitating greater depth in pupils’ knowledge rather than greater curriculum coverage. The specified curriculum is based on the National Curriculum and KS4 syllabi however, the School believes strongly in ensuring that the ‘hidden curriculum’ – how pupils learn about themselves and society in the way that we organise ourselves as a school – has a positive impact on the individual child. We strongly believe that access to cultural capital is an entitlement of every pupil, and we are regularly reviewing our curriculum to increase opportunities to access learning about different cultures and diversity. We also have a specified ‘Wellbeing Curriculum’, which sets out the universal provision for all pupils, and we are developing our practice to facilitate even greater inclusion in extra-curricular provision in school. Moreover, as part of our ongoing learning, we involve pupils proactively in curriculum development through our received curriculum reviews and, our pupil leadership groups. ​ ​ At The Westgate School our curriculum is not intended to lead learners to fulfil their potential: our intention is to unlock the individual’s potential and to equip them with the knowledge and skills to be able to learn in different situations throughout their lives. ​ Our teaching is inclusive using a whole class approach. Teachers use fluid, peel away groups: “Master Classes” for support and extension as needed. ​ A Community of Learning... ​ Being a high achieving, successful learning community only happens as a result of genuine collaboration. Every young person is unique and so we seek to provide a range of different learning opportunities in which every individual can excel. The Early Years Foundation Stage is framed around the characteristics of effective learning: Playing | Exploring active learning | Creating | Thinking critically These provide a foundation for learning upon which our curriculum in the Lower and Upper Schools are built. Our central purpose is for children to develop into young people who are happy and effective learners . We achieve this by being a community of learning where adults and pupils alike are committed to this central aim and work in strong partnership with parents to inspire success for all. Adults working with children and young people in our school community use a process of observation, assessment and planning to identify the learning and developmental needs of each child. Alongside knowledge of children’s interests, we plan opportunities for learning that are stimulating and engaging, leading to strong progress right from the Early Years Foundation Stage through to Year 11. In addition to the specified curriculum, pupils in The Westgate will have the opportunity to experience a wide range of activities that enhance and enrich the curriculum. The all-through setting provides a unique opportunity for young people to learn from their peers and through the teaching of younger pupils. This powerful model for learning is one that permeates our culture and further enriches the community of learning. ​ ...Achieving Excellence. ​ Based on the principles of a growth mindset , the practice of teaching and learning at The Westgate encourages children and young people to be led by their curiosity and to be prepared to use mistakes as the best opportunities for learning. This begins in the Early Years Foundation Stage where pupils are encouraged to make decisions about how to do things, to explain their thinking and to be resilient in their efforts. This theme continues through our practice in the Lower and Upper Schools where teaching colleagues will encourage pupils to verbalise their decision making process , explaining how they reached a particular conclusion or why they chose a specific method for doing something in order that they gain even better control over their learning and can apply skills to new situations. A golden thread throughout learning in all subjects and stages at The Westgate is the development of Literacy and Mathematical skills which are a foundation for learning in all disciplines and lead to strong outcomes at examination level and for post-16 learning. At The Westgate, we believe that through our exemplary partnerships with parents and young people, we can inspire a love of learning - something that is intrinsically linked to the development of individual self-esteem and motivation. In our school, there is no separation between our commitment to academic success and the wellbeing of the children and young people in our community. ​ Compliance with regulatory acts Our curriculum complies within the duties of the the statutory Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) Code of Practice (2015) and the following legislation: Part 3 of the Children and Families Act 2014, which sets out schools’ responsibilities for pupils with SEN and disabilities and The Equality Act 2010, with particular reference to Part 6 “Education” ​ We strive for High Quality Inclusive Teaching within our classes and for all pupils to access a broad and balanced curriculum. When deciding whether special educational provision is required, we will start with the desired outcomes, including a variety of assessments of the pupil’s progress and attainment, the views and wishes of the pupil and their parents and information from other agencies. ​ Please refer to our SEN Information report for further details ​

< Previous Curriculum in-depth Next > French “Becoming an active communicator in the world’s global village” Our Languages Curriculum intends to: Broaden pupils’ horizons by developing a passion for languages and cultures and recognise the additional career opportunities open to people who speak an additional language. Ensure that every pupil is encouraged and supported to study a language for GCSE. Encourage a growth mind-set in pupils to learning a new language and develop the confidence to communicate. Secondary Choices Process Learn More Overview of the Course: The learning of a language encourages respect for other people; it fosters an understanding of the interrelation of language and human nature. Studying any foreign language will broaden minds and give pupils a better insight into the world around us. It will encourage empathy as an individual. It demonstrates openness to society and an ability to communicate with others on all levels. The learning of a language supports an appreciation of cultural diversity. Learning a foreign language is a liberation from insularity and provides an opening to other cultures. A high-quality languages education will foster pupils’ curiosity and deepen their understanding of the world. This enables pupils to express their ideas and thoughts in another language and to understand and respond to its speakers, both in speech and in writing. It also provides opportunities for the pupils to communicate for practical purposes, learn new ways of thinking and read great literature in the original language, equipping pupils to study and work in other countries Pupils will continue to study the language they have learnt at Westgate since Year 7. Some pupils choose to continue with a second language. German will also be offered as a GCSE starting in Year 9 (dependant on pupil numbers). Several trips run throughout the year to complement the learning of languages and broaden pupils’ cultural experiences. EYFS | KS1 Content KS2 Content Year 7 & 8 Content Year 9 Content Year 10 & 11 Content French is not taught within our school day as we focus on Spanish. However, we do run a weekly after school class taken by subject specialists for pupls interested in learning French in addition to Spanish. For further information please look on EduLink or contact the school directly.

< Previous Curriculum in-depth Next > Personal Development ‘Working in partnership with parents/carers and the wider community to enable pupils to feel safe, included, happy and prepared for life beyond school’ Our Personal Development Curriculum intends to: To enable pupils to make effective choices, Be mindful of British Values and To develop into positive citizens of modern-day Britain. Secondary Choices Process Learn More Why Learn Personal Development? Personal Development (PD) equips pupils to live healthy, safe, productive, capable, responsible and balanced lives. It encourages them to be enterprising and supports them in making effective transitions, positive learning and career choices and in achieving economic wellbeing. A critical component of PD education is providing opportunities for children and young people to reflect on and clarify their own values and attitudes and explore the complex and sometimes conflicting range of values and attitudes they encounter now and in the future. Personal Development education helps pupils to cope with the changes at puberty, introduces them to a wider world and enables them to make an active contribution to their communities. The curriculum for Personal Development is led by our Designated Safeguarding Lead Practitioner (All-Through), Year Leaders and, nominated colleagues in our primary phase. This ensures that the content is always age appropriate. Ground rules are used in all lessons to ensure that this aspect of our curriculum is facilitated in an emotionally safe way. All teachers are supported to deliver Personal Development lessons in an appropriate way through CPD programme and individual support by the Year and Assistant Year Leaders. Specialist teachers are used to deliver some aspects of the curriculum. EYFS | KS1 Content KS2 Content Year 7 & 8 Content Year 9 Content Year 10 & 11 Content Early Years Foundation Stage & Key Stage 1 This aspect of our curriculum is delivered by class teachers with specialist input and assemblies where appropriate. Personal Development offers explicit and implicit learning opportunities based on key themes that are considered throughout all key stages. Different teaching methods are used, such as direct teaching, discussion and debate, research, books, stories, visiting speakers and workshops. The schemes of work and lessons are planned to implement the curriculum intent and are flexible, reflecting pupils’ needs with adaptations to take on board pupils and parental feedback, ideas and topical issues in society. During Key Stage 1 pupils learn about themselves as developing individuals and as members of their communities, building on their own experiences and on the early learning goals for personal, social and emotional development. Throughout the Primary Phase, each class uses a large Personal Development journal to evidence our curriculum. The core themes of the curriculum are Health and Wellbeing, Relationships and Living in the Wider World. 1. Health and Wellbeing: Pupils learn about Healthy Lifestyles: physical wellbeing, mental health, ourselves growing and changing, keeping safe; drugs, alcohol, tobacco and vaping. They learn the basic rules and skills for keeping themselves healthy and safe and for behaving well.

Preparing to play an active role as citizens As members of a class and school community, they learn social skills such as how to share, take turns, play, help others, resolve simple arguments and resist bullying. They begin to take an active part in the life of their school and its neighbourhood Our pupils are taught to: Take part in discussions with one other person and the whole class; Take part in a simple debate about topical issues; To recognise choices they can make, and recognise the difference between right and wrong; Agree and follow rules for their group and classroom, and understand how rules help them; Realise that people and other living things have needs, and that they have responsibilities to meet them; That they belong to various groups and communities, such as family and school; What improves and harms their local, natural and built environments and about some of the ways people look after them; h. to contribute to the life of the class and school; Realise that money comes from different sources and can be used for different purposes. 3. Developing good relationships and respecting the differences between people They begin to learn about their own and other people's feelings and become aware of the views, needs and rights of other children and older people. Our pupils are taught: To recognise how their behaviour affects other people; To listen to other people, and play and work cooperatively; To identify and respect the differences and similarities between people; That family and friends should care for each other; That there are different types of teasing and bullying, that bullying is wrong, and how to get help to deal with bullying. Breadth of opportunities Our pupils will be taught the knowledge, skills and understanding through opportunities to: Take and share responsibility (for example, for their own behaviour; by helping to make classroom rules and following them; by looking after pets well); Feel positive about themselves (for example, by having their achievements recognised and by being given positive feedback about themselves); Take part in discussions (for example, talking about topics of school, local, national, European, Commonwealth and global concern, such as 'where our food and raw materials for industry come from'); Make real choices (for example, between healthy options in school meals, what to watch on television, what games to play, how to spend and save money sensibly); Meet and talk with people (for example, with outside visitors such as religious leaders, police officers, the school nurse); Develop relationships through work and play (for example, by sharing equipment with other pupils or their friends in a group task); Consider social and moral dilemmas that they come across in everyday life (for example, aggressive behaviour, questions of fairness, right and wrong, simple political issues, use of money, simple environmental issues); Ask for help (for example, from family and friends, midday supervisors, older pupils, the police.
