At Dundonald High School, we are committed to delivering a curriculum that is dynamic, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of our pupils. We regularly review and refine our curriculum to ensure it reflects the demands of a rapidly changing world and prepares our students for further education, employment, and life beyond school.

We recognise that developing a broad range of skills across all Key Stages is essential. Our curriculum is designed not only to provide strong academic foundations but also to build confidence, resilience, and adaptability—qualities that are vital for success in the 21st century.

​

To ensure consistently high standards in every classroom, all teaching and learning at Dundonald High School is underpinned by our 4-phase model. This structured approach ensures that every lesson is thoughtfully planned and delivered with clarity, purpose, and progression. It supports teachers in creating engaging, inclusive, and challenging learning experiences that meet the needs of all learners.

​

Central to our approach is a strong commitment to child-centred learning. Our staff are dedicated to understanding the individual needs, strengths, and interests of each pupil. Lessons are adapted and differentiated to ensure that every learner is supported and challenged appropriately. Whether through personalised feedback, flexible teaching strategies, or targeted support, we strive to make every learning experience meaningful and accessible.

​

At the heart of our curriculum planning is our mission to “inspire future generations.” Our teaching staff, classroom assistants, and technical support teams are united in their commitment to delivering high-quality learning experiences. They work tirelessly to ensure that every pupil is supported, challenged, and encouraged to reach their full potential and pursue their ambitions with confidence.
