Dover Class
Welcome
Class Teacher: Katy Docherty
Dover is a formal Key Stage 3 class for students in Years 7, 8, and 9. We follow a broad and engaging curriculum, including English, Maths, Science, Art, Music, ICT, PE, Cooking, DT, and PSHE. Our learning is supported by The Castle School’s Rainbows and Gemstones framework, which helps track progress and celebrate achievements.
Each day, we focus on building literacy and numeracy skills through reading, writing, and memory activities. Lessons are tailored to suit different learning styles. This is also the case in the wider curriculum where students are supported to gain skills and experiences for a holistic education. We also prioritise emotional wellbeing, with activities that support self-regulation and positive relationships.
Students take part in regular physical activities and learn key life skills like time, money management, and independence. Communication is encouraged in a respectful, supportive environment where students can share ideas, ask questions, and work together with confidence.
We are excited to support every student’s journey here in Dover Class and look forward to working together to help them grow, learn, and succeed.
Welcome to Dover!
