At Gordano school, we are ambitious for all students to experience, develop and secure the knowledge, skills and attitudes that will allow them to progress with curiosity and confidence through school and beyond. Our definition of the curriculum is ‘the entire planned learning experience’ (Waters, 2017). Our aim therefore, in planning and implementing both the taught and wider curriculum is to develop lifelong learners, with the agency and desire to positively contribute to the various communities to which they belong. 

We are proud of our broad curriculum, extensive extra-curricular offer and our expert, dedicated teachers.
