In addition, we have alternative pathways where they are better suited to our pupils needs such as Entry Level programmes in English, maths and science and the AQA Unit Awards. 

EAL pupils who are new to English also can opt to study for the Access to English programme in option A reducing the number of GCSEs they study and giving them additional support.

In addition to our curriculum content, this section demonstrates some of the work we have done on an anti-discrimination curriculum

Relationships & Sex Education

Sex Education is presented within a moral framework, which not only provides information, but also encourages responsible behaviour. Parents/Carers are welcome to discuss the programme and the materials used with staff at The Academy.

Details of the knowledge students at Cedar Mount have by the end of their secondary career can be found by clicking on the links below.

As a parent/carer you have the right to withdraw your child from RE lessons. If you wish to withdraw your child from RE please put your request in writing to the Principal.

Physical Health & Mental Wellbeing

It is important to focus on health and wellbeing so pupils can make well-informed, positive choices for themselves. The document below explains how this is taught, the topics it is placed within and when it is introduced.
