Links and Pathways

Curriculum links

Alongside a predominantly optional activity list the BWS programme does extend to the Physical Education curriculum with the inclusion of Orienteering for Key Stage 3. The school utilises its unique position within the Cathedral close to operate various routes and control types in order to apply some of the fundamentals of the Adventure programme including navigation, timekeeping and team based problem solving.

The Pathways below give some idea of this and the table that follows begins to lay out some of the detail in relation to a pathway towards self-sufficiency within an adventurous environment.
