Key Stage 3
The Secondary National Strategy builds on and has grown out of the success of the Key Stage 3 Strategy. The Key Stage 3 Strategy began in 2000 with a subject focus, initially English and mathematics. In the third year of the strategy, this was broadened through a cross-curricular approach using whole-school initiatives and the behaviour and attendance strand. The work of the Key Stage 3 Strategy has been extended across the 11 to 16 age range.
The 'Secondary' section of the DCSF National Strategies website contains materials, programmes and guidance to support your use of the Secondary Framework and improve your school's practice in assessment, behaviour, attendance, social and emotional aspects of learning (SEAL), and throughout the curriculum.
