The Alternative Curriculum at St
John's School and Community College is taught to KS3 children
and is aimed at raising standards by returning to teaching
children how to learn. The five competences from the RSA
framework (learning to learn, relating to people, citizenship,
managing information and managing situations) form the
framework for this new curriculum. Strategies are used
to develop preferred learning styles, and the core
competencies flow through all aspects of work. The
curriculum examines learning styles, and develops skills for
independent learning, including intensive ICT training.
This seminar, led by Sarah Frame and Janet Payne, explains how
the KS3 ICT strategy has been incorporated into the new
curriculum.
