The overarching aim for KS3 English in Sidmouth College is to promote high standards of language and literacy by equipping pupils with a strong command of the spoken and written word, and to develop their love of literature through widespread reading for enjoyment. Our curriculum is designed to prepare students for the demands of the GCSE and into the future.

How are students assessed? Students are assessed half-termly through a range of methods. The primary method is through written assessments in a dedicated assessment book – these assessments are marked by the class teacher. We also assess students through speaking and listening. Peer assessment and self-reflection are incorporated in the schemes of learning. We also assess at the end of each year through examination.
