  • Drama | All Saints Catholic College

    Educatio "The office of drama is to exercise, possibly to exhaust, human emotions. The purpose of comedy is to tickle those emotions into an expression of light relief; of tragedy, to wound them and bring the relief of tears. Disgust and terror are the other points of the compass." Laurence Olivier ​ Mission Statement Drama is another popular subject in All Saints Catholic College. The Performing Arts Department is in the heart of the school in new building. The drama studio is a large space with a lighting rig, pull out tiered seating, and the option of being fully black-out for performances. This is an exciting and professional space for our students where they can rehearse and where more intimate concerts and performances take place. This room is perfect for rehearsals and our more intimate concerts. Drama is taught as a discrete subject in KS3. In Year 7, 8 and 9 students explore the nature of the subject, its key skills and processes, through practical activities related to a variety of stimulus material. Some of the topics studied are: Shakespeare, Physical Theatre, Bullying, DNA by Dennis Kelly, Sparkle Shark by Phillip Ridley and Comedy. From Year 10 Drama can be chosen as an option for GCSE (Eduqas) and here there is a greater focus on developing more sophisticated skills and techniques not just in preparation for the exam but these skills that can be carried out beyond the classroom. In drama we deliver a wide variety of different schemes that look at themes, issues and social skills from a global aspect. For example Script work via Blood Brothers and studying practitioners who have influenced theatre and Drama across the world. We have an extensive extra-curricular activities programme, where we have one large scale musical production each year and have been other smaller scale productions throughout the year for example a Christmas show. We are currently forging strong links with local theatres such as the Bush Theatre and the Tricycle; there we have trips to see live performances in the West End and Fringe theatre. The Drama Department aims to: stimulate the imagination of our students; encourage self-confidence; develop an ability to effectively communicate both verbally and physically; acquire a good understanding of the history, nature and function of Theatre and theatrical skills; provide a broad and exciting experience for students; learn subject specific skills such as performance and directing; promote respect and appreciation of all cultures – particularly relevant in our culturally rich world; develop lively, enquiring minds and the ability to question and argue rationally. Literacy Statement The Drama Department provides opportunities to enhance the writing, reading and oral skills of students through lessons and assessments. Students who are literate in Drama can: use their speaking and listening skills to help them make progress; use subject-specific vocabulary; write a critical analysis of their own and the work of others; actively explore and write about specific genres, styles and traditions from social and historical contexts; discriminate, think and evaluate critically and make connections between different types of dramatic performances; identify and explore the different acting styles; describe, compare and evaluate performances; suggest improvements to their own and others’ work; commenting on how the performer’s intentions have been achieved; refine and improve their work through self and peer assessment. ​ Click below to view our Drama curriculum for each year group. ​ Year 7 Year 8 Year 9 Year 10 Year 11 ​ If you would like to find out more about the Drama curriculum, contact our Head of Performing Arts Ms Vojvodic by emailing e.vojvodic@allsaintscc.org.uk ​ Drama "Act today in such a way that you need not blush tomorrow."

  • Schola Cantorum | All Saints Catholic College

    Schola Cantorum The ASCC Schola Cantorum was established in April 2021 and made their debut later that year, on 14th July 2021 at the Celebration Mass. Tracing its origins back to the Middle Ages, All Saints’ very own Director of Musical Life, Mr Bick has brought this medieval papal tradition to the heart of Ladbroke Grove. Established in the 6th century by Pope Gregory I, the Schola Cantorum, (which literally means ‘school for singing’) specialized in music for papal liturgies and became the model for modern-day cathedral choirs. One of Mr Bick’s largest changes to the Schola tradition is the introduction of girls to the choir. Traditionally, the Schola would consist only of boys or men, however in 2021 over half of the 14 founding members are female. Today, after a highly competitive audition process and following the recent addition of carefully selected Y7 students, the number of students in the Schola Cantorum stands at 23, with a 50/50 split between boys and girls. The dedication and determination of our Schola students has been second to none and should serve as inspiration to all our students. They arrive at 8am prompt every morning to rehearse material for their next engagement and to practice their tuning, tempo and aural skills. They also attend individual singing lessons once a week, taught by Mr Slimings, a trained singing professional and recent addition to our staff community. ​ One of the most exciting aspects of our Schola is the magnitude of opportunities it will create for our students. The long term goal is for the Schola to be singing in mass each week, either in school or next door at St Charles. As times goes on, we hope to expand the locations of the Schola’s performances to beyond the gates of the school and out into the local community. Mr Bick’s ultimate ambition is to take the Schola on tour and is hopeful that the experience will set the students up to gain choral scholarships at Oxford and Cambridge. It’s ambitious, but aspirations are high at All Saints. Schola Cantorum Explore

  • Computer Science | All Saints Catholic College

    Educatio Mission Statement Communication is essential to the Gospel. Without it, the messages that we were called to proclaim and express would never reach out. Our modern technology gives us a greater opportunity to learn about Christ and to spread his message. ​ The Computing Department is part of a Catholic Christian Community and has a mission to promote the use of Computing, to enhance understanding, knowledge and appreciation of God’s universe. ​ A high-quality computing education equips pupils to use computational thinking and creativity to understand and change the world. Computing has deep links with mathematics, science and design and technology, and provides insights into both natural and artificial systems. The core of computing is computer science, in which pupils are taught the principles of information and computation, how digital systems work and how to put this knowledge to use through programming. Building on this knowledge and understanding, pupils are equipped to use information technology to create programs, systems and a range of content. Computing also ensures that pupils become digitally literate – able to use, and express themselves and develop their ideas through, information and communication technology – at a level suitable for the future workplace and as active participants in a digital world. ​ In fulfilling our mission we will provide resources, time and a comfortable environment to allow every pupil to: understand and apply the fundamental principles and concepts of computer science, including abstraction, logic, algorithms and data representation; analyse problems in computational terms, and have repeated practical experience of writing computer programs in order to solve such problems; evaluate and apply information technology, including new or unfamiliar technologies, analytically to solve problems; learn to be responsible, competent, confident and creative users of information and communication technology. The department is committed to delivering an education that equips learners for life in the Information Age of the 21st Century. We whole heartedly believe that Computing is a hugely powerful medium for transforming teaching and enabling the learning process to be enhanced, extended and enriched. Our aim is to foster and develop such experiences for our pupils. ​ Departmental Aims To develop, maintain and stimulate pupils' curiosity, interest and enjoyment in Computing and to encourage pupils to have open, enquiring minds and to perceive Computing in the context of a wider body of knowledge, skills and vocabulary. Pupils should ideally become autonomous users of ICT with the associated skills supporting life long study, the pursuit of personal interests and prospective employment in a modern technological society. To enable pupils to acquire appropriate, transferable Computing skills, knowledge and understanding. To develop pupils’ confidence and practical skills in using the Computing across the curriculum. To promote an informed use of computers in a manner which does not compromise health and safety. To help pupils to acquire the language associated with Computing and to use this correctly. To offer innovative approaches to learning and to assist pupils to become effective at managing their own learning and to encourage them to become independent self learners and participate in e learning environments. To provide the opportunity for all students to gain a Computing qualification. Digital Literacy Young people need the skills, knowledge, and confidence to understand the digital world in which we live. In both their school and personal life, they will use technology to develop solutions to problems. An understanding of the technical, societal, and ethical aspects of technology will help them critically evaluate emerging applications and technologies. ​ The Computing Department provides opportunities to enhance the skills and knowledge required to be an effective, safe, and discerning user of computer systems. These are the six themes for digital literacy across the national curriculum: ● Use of devices and applications ● Handling and storing data and information ● Design, creation, and editing of content ● Communication using technology ● Online safety ● Moral and ethical behaviour relating to technology Click below to view our Computer Science curriculum for each year group. ​ Year 7 Year 8 (Digitial Art) Year 9 Year 10 Year 11 ​ If you would like to find out more about the Computer Science curriculum, contact our Head of Creative Technology Ms Vojvodic by emailing e.vojvodic@allsaintscc.org.uk ​ Computer Science "The computer was born to solve problems that did not exist before."

Homework enables students to: • Take ownership and responsibility for learning. • Develop independence. • Consolidate and extend work covered in class or prepare for new learning activities. • Access resources not available in the classroom. • Build research skills. • Show progress and understanding. • To enhance their study skills e.g. planning, time management and self-discipline. • Engage parental cooperation and support. ​ ​ Below are homework timetables for students in all year groups. The timetable relates to the day that the homework is due. All students have a printed sticker of the homework timetable in their planner. Homework is set in class and put on Teams. It is your child's responsibility to record the homework task set in their planner. ​ Please ensure that your child completes their homework prior to the due date. If the homework is not completed, your child will be sanctioned with an XPW and sit a one-hour detention after school until 4:15pm on the following day.
