Year 8
"Character is doing what is right when nobody is watching"
J.C Watts
Now that our students have settled into school life, our focus for the Year 8 Personal Development Curriculum at Toot Hill School is to enable our students to continue to flourish and fulfil their potential. Students are now familiar with our core values of Work Hard, Be Kind and understand the importance of our PRIDE values and how this is central to our school community. As students are approaching their adolescent years, it is a key time to help them develop their self-awareness in doing what is right, and to recognise and cultivate the key values on which positive relationships are built. The Year 8 programme is purposely designed to deepen their knowledge of emerging trends that they may encounter and encourage them to understand the importance of their contribution to their local, wider and global communities.
