At Alsop High School, our Personal Development programme is carefully designed with students at the heart of everything we do. Guided by our core values of Ambition, Respect and Community, we are passionate about providing rich, inclusive opportunities that enable every young person to become healthy, confident, independent, responsible and safe members of society.

Our programme supports students in understanding their personal and social development while exploring the moral, social and cultural issues that are part of growing up in today’s world. Students learn about British Values and develop an appreciation of what it means to belong to a diverse and inclusive society. Through meaningful experiences, students build self-worth, resilience and a strong sense of identity.

We provide a wide range of opportunities for students to contribute positively to school life and the wider community, including:

  • Extra-curricular clubs and enrichment activities
  • Educational visits and experiences beyond the classroom
  • Student leadership opportunities
  • Participation in our House System
  • Community engagement projects

These opportunities encourage teamwork, leadership, confidence and a sense of responsibility.

We work closely in partnership with students, families and external providers to deliver an ambitious Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) programme. This ensures students understand how their learning links to future pathways, empowering them to make informed choices about education, training and careers.

Above all, our Personal Development programme is about shaping character, nurturing aspiration and celebrating individuality. By igniting students’ passions and valuing their differences, we aim to ensure that every learner is supported to flourish during their school years and beyond.
