At Bobby Moore Academy our curriculum aims to:
- Empower scholars as effective learners who can fulfil their potential and provide ‘cultural capital’ experiences to help overcome socio-economic barriers.
- Provide a formal academic curriculum, and the co-curricular and enrichment opportunities which broaden and deepen their learning opportunities.
- Enable scholars to build their motivation and commitment to long-term learning, to engage fully in the social and political dialogues.

PSHE and RSE and RE at BMA
Daily year group character time sessions, whole school assemblies and timetabled PSHE periods are used to address significant topical issues and place prominence on our school values. Religious Education (RE) is covered as a discrete subject at Key Stage 3 and as part of the broader PSHE and assembly programme for Key Stage 4 and 5. Religious Education is a whole cohort subject at GCSE level and remains an option as an A-level subject for all students in Key Stage 5. Relationships, Sex and Health (RSE) education is also covered within tutor time and drop-down days across the academic year. This curriculum covers all recommended content for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE).
