Key Stage 3

At Fulston Manor students are taught in mixed ability teaching sets. Each student is provided with personalised learning goals based on prior attainment. This enables students to progress at their own pace and develop skills, knowledge and understanding to a high standard irrespective of their starting point. This also supports student transition to GCSE. Students are challenged in lessons based on their aptitude to different topics and supported where needed to access higher order material.

Teaching sets in the option groups at KS4 are also mixed ability. In subjects, such as Mathematics and Science, which have Higher and Foundation papers, it is necessary to set students to prepare them for the different content in each paper.
