Residential
Education
All pupils in Year 9 will be expected to take part in a
period of residential education at some stage during the
year. Parents will be informed, well in advance, of the
detailed arrangements for this.
Sex Education
At Trinity we believe it is important for all young
people to be well-informed about sex education matters
as they progress through school and
become young adults. Biological aspects of human
reproduction are taught through Science lessons, as part
of the National Curriculum for all children. Social and
moral aspects of sex education, which aim to develop
responsible attitudes to relationships and health issues
are covered through Personal and Social Education
lessons.

Year 9 Curriculum (Key Stage 3)

aims to give pupils a broad and balanced
