Key Stage 3

Pupils at Key Stage 3 follow the Northern Ireland Curriculum which aims to empower young people to achieve their potential and to make informed and responsible decisions throughout their lives.

​

​

The key objectives are:

​

• to develop the young person as an individual;

• to develop the young person as a contributor to society; and

• to develop the young person as a contributor to the economy and environment.

 

 

These objectives are to be achieved for Learning for Life and Work through Key Elements, infusing cross curricular skills and thinking skills and personal capabilities across the Areas of Learning.
