Words are a form of magic; they are how we share ideas, how we communicate, how we affect and inspire change in others and in ourselves. Words are capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it
At TCS, students are taught to frame texts as living and active entities that reflect the values, interests and perspectives of their writers and attempt to see those values personified in the wider world. The question is not “what is this text about?” but rather “what does this text do to it’s reader?”
Through study, application, adaptation and practice, students at TCS are empowered to master the magic power of words for themselves and use the written and spoken word to overcome the challenges that they face at school and in later life.
Our Curriculum Road Maps offer a brief visual guide to our curriculum showing the learning sequence that students will follow in each year group.
