All students at Jewellery Quarter Academy have the opportunity to develop their character around our CORE values. This is an important part of our mission.
Students take part in a range of character-building activities and sessions, led by their form tutor, and receive a termly report from their tutor on their progress towards securely demonstrating the CORE characteristics.
We also have 3 Opportunity Days per year with students following particular themes around our character traits, developing cultural capital, engaging with careers and our historic community.
We held a consultation with parents in relation to Relations, Sex and health Education at the academy in Autumn 2020 to help inform our policy and this can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CM1IFeytvqY&feature=youtu.be
A full outline of a student’s journey and personal development programme can be found below, including our RSHE policy, daily form time sessions and bespoke Personal Development lessons each week on Tuesday mornings and our CORE Extra sessions each Tuesday afternoon with topics such as Astronomy, Latin, Photography that students opt into each term from 3.10-4.10:
