19 At King’s we place our ASPIRE values at the heart of everything we do. This Learning Cycle we focus on our values of ASPIRATION AND ACHIEVEMENT. Our values of aspiration and achievement are focused on our ‘no glass ceilings’ approach to learning. We want every student to aim high and believe in themselves. With hard work, they can achieve their very best and see their dreams become a reality. We link our values to important life lessons and so every year group has a lesson a week in Character – here we look at Personal, Social, Moral and Economic (PSHE) areas. Additionally our Super Learning Day will link to the topics covered too. Topics covered this Learning Cycle include; Year 7 – Aspiring to be myself (transition to high school and independence). Year 8 – Aspiring for better opportunities (strengths, weaknesses and types of work) Year 9 – Aspiring for employment (employment in the UK and working rights). Year 10 – Aspiring to understand my country and its values (democracy, migration and human rights). Year 11 – Aspiring to be independent (the world of personal finance). Topics we will also discuss in assemblies include; 1) British Values and democracy; Parliament feedback 2) Diversity and Culture Month (King’s September focus) 3) Revision skills and planning 4) Parliament Month (King’s <strong>October</strong> focus) – Make Your Mark campaign. Finally, in Public Speaking, Philosophy and Ethics students study current affairs and topical issues so that we continue to develop the social, moral, spiritual and cultural development of our young people in order to make them successful citizens.
20 An important reminder about bicycle safety Please can we encourage all pupils to purchase a light for their bikes to ensure safety when riding. As it is now often dark by 4pm, it is important to ensure that motorists can see you. Please also remember to be safe and self-aware as you ride, and wear a helmet and high visibility clothing. Your school uniform is very dark, so it is worth thinking about how to improve your visibility. For more information on bicycle safety, please visit the following website: https://www.cheshire.police.uk/advice-and-support/ bicycle-safety-and-security/
