Secondary Schools
New developments with the KS3 and KS4 curriculum will expand the potential for creative
and innovative cross curricular learning opportunities inspired by St Katherine’s.
A regular programme of sessions for secondary schools will be on offer from September
2010. Topic days and project work designed to enrich the curriculum will be available
on specific dates from January 2010. We will be working with teachers and consulting
with our Learning Advisory Group to develop exciting and innovative cross curricular
learning opportunities.
Religion, music, history, art and design will be the first subjects to be addressed
for our standard workshops. For example, exploring the role and everyday life of
St Katherine’s priory in the community during the medieval period and contrasting
it with the role of church and community today. The art and craftsmanship in St
Katherine’s is a valuable resource which will be explored for learning and inspiration.
Future developments will include developing interactive projects which encourage
pupils which investigate and develop business skills in relation to tourism and
heritage markets.
Promotional visits for teachers will take place prior to St Katherine’s opening
in late 2009 and after opening. For further information and details, please visit
