Key Stage 3 and 4

A Game Changing Curriculum

BET’s vision is that ‘the highest expectations, a culture of Enjoy Respect Achieve, unparalleled opportunities and highly effective teaching combine to develop students who are game changers’. 

As such our learners’ journey is organised into a two year Key Stage 3 (KS3) and a 3 year Key Stage 4 (KS4). This enables students to go beyond the National Curriculum at KS3 and deeper than exam board specifications at KS4, maintaining a sense of enjoyment through trips, visits, clubs and gamechanger opportunities from Y7 through to Y11.

The KS3 Curriculum

The KS3 curriculum is designed to allow all students to access a wide range of subjects and experience the opportunities to further enhance their skills and knowledge from their KS2 studies. 

Students will study a core curriculum of:

  • Mathematics
  • English
  • Science
  • Geography
  • History
  • Religious Education
  • Personal Development
  • Computer Science
  • Art
  • Drama
  • Music
  • Design Technology and Food and Nutrition
  • PE
  • Either French, Spanish or Mandarin

Our KS3 Curriculum goes beyond National Curriculum content and is reflected within our Learning Journey documents (below), supporting students in their transition to KS4.

Students can access support materials for all of their KS3 courses on our Bohunt Horsham Revises website.

The Key Stage 4 Curriculum

The KS4 Options Process is designed to enable learners to indicate preferences that they have a passion for, and desire to, study beyond the KS3 Curriculum. Option subjects are planned to ensure broad, balanced and in depth teaching that goes beyond the exam specification allowing students to access unparalleled opportunities and become, ultimately, “game changers”.

Alongside 4 options subjects, students also study a core curriculum of:

  • GCSE English Language
  • GCSE English Literature
  • GCSE Maths
  • GCSE Combined Science OR GCSE Separate Sciences
  • Either GCSE History, GCSE Geography, GCSE Computing, GCSE Ancient History, GCSE Mandarin, GCSE French or GCSE Spanish
  • Religious Education (non-examined)
  • Core Physical Education (non-examined)

Most students will take a language and this is mandatory for students who are placed on the highly ambitious Route 109 Pathway.
