The Curriculum
The school is committed to delivering a broad and balanced curriculum to all children whether they are in the Foundation Stage, Key Stage One or Key Stage Two. The curriculum is an entitlement and work is differentiated so that it challenges and stretches the brightest child but can also be understood by a child who may find learning difficult and needs extra help to complete tasks.
We aim to put our children at the centre of their own learning and place great emphasis on nurturing skills and attitudes such as resourcefulness, resilience and co-operation. Our teachers bring the National Curriculum alive by making links between the individual subjects and applying them to topics. Themes have included: Dragon slayer, Rotten Romans, Groovy Greeks and Oh I do like to be beside the seaside!
