KS3 Provision

Welcome to the Brookfield KS3 area! The KS3 site is based in Poulton-le-Fylde and caters to 40 pupils from years 7 to 9. We aim to engage pupils with learning, let them experience success and make strong relationships with staff and peers. We have high expectations of work, behaviour and attendance built on a strong foundation of positivity and rewards for work well done.

Curriculum 
Students access a broad and balanced curriculum across Year 7-9, our curriculum is designed to provide tailored, flexible routes through the Key Stage. These are created through the combination of a range of Programmes of Study and sensitive, flexible setting and grouping arrangements. The Key Stage 3 curriculum has been designed to prepare pupils for Key Stage 4 when they will access GCSE and equivalent qualifications by building skills and offering an engaging curriculum aimed to engage and lay the foundations of lifelong learning.

“Brookfield School has been the absolute making of our boy, he has progressed in every area of his life. The staff and the environment are supportive, caring, kind and above all, nurturing of children  who need something a little bit extra. Nothing is ever too much, too big, too complicated or too ‘out there’ for this school- they cover everything! We can’t thank them enough” Year 8 parent
