Our Curriculum

Curriculum Intent

Our curriculum is an explicit and deliberate guarantor of equality. Our curriculum is coherently planned and sequenced towards cumulatively sufficient knowledge and skills for the next stage of education.

Our ambitious curriculum is designed to give all learners the passion for individual and communal pursuit of wisdom. We ensure that our curriculum gets children reading and keeps them reading using the Read, Write Inc programmes. Children are taught the right maths to ensure they're building on prior knowledge.

Oracy runs through our curriculum like a golden thread to ensure we explicitly teach vocabulary and focus on speaking and listening. All children will have access to our broad and balanced curriculum.

Mission Statement

We want a school with a culture of compassion – where children and staff want to belong. We want to play a prominent role in the community by supporting not only our children, but their families too. We want to grow our school in size, expertise and strength. We will continue to be research informed – our decisions will be informed by research but we will do what’s right for our context. We want to continue to lead on local and national initiatives and open our doors to colleagues from other schools to share best practice. Whilst we strive for academic success, we will ensure that our pupils are emotionally and physically ready to learn.
