| We endeavour to deliver a curriculum that is broad, balanced, enjoyable and differentiated to cater for the wide spread of abilities.
Using our professional judgement, the Government Primary Strategies and the requirements of the National and Foundation Stage Curriculum, we aim to provide exciting, enjoyable lessons matched to each child's developing needs. Children are set targets, which ensure that all can be challenged while enjoying success.
The curriculum is carefully planned to ensure continuity and progression. Subjects may be taught separately or, if more appropriate, as part of a class topic. Pupils experience a variety of learning situations; working as a class, in groups and individually.
The following statements give a brief outline of our philosophy in each curriculum area. The full policy documents are available on request.
