    Welcome to the Middle School Curriculum at Cowbridge School! In Years 7 and 8, students embark on an exciting journey of discovery, developing key skills, knowledge, and a love for learning across a broad and balanced curriculum. Our engaging and supportive environment encourages curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking, ensuring that every student is challenged and inspired. From core subjects like English, Maths, and Science to enriching experiences in the Humanities, Arts, and Technology, we aim to nurture well-rounded individuals ready for future success. 

    Students in Year 7 and 8 study the following subjects: 

    • English

    • Mathematics

    • Science

    • Welsh

    • Ethics and Philosophy 

    • Art

    • Music

    • Modern Foreign Language (French / German)

    • Food and Nutrition

    • Textiles

    • Product Design

    • Digital Technology

    • Physical Education

    • Health and Wellbeing

    As the school develops into a full all-age school, the curriculum for Year 5 and 6 will be planned to provide exposure to all aspects of the curriculum where they will be taught in the specialist teaching areas. For example, this will allow the pupils to conduct full Science experiments, cook in the food room or compose music in the music rooms.
