Welcome to our curriculum pages. We provide a broad, balanced and exciting curriculum to all our children, to stimulate their minds so that their love of learning grows and that they develop a sound set of key skills. We want every child to meet or exceed national expectations and make good or better progress.

We want our children to be able to:

• Develop the ability to think independently, work hard and to persevere when faced with challenges in order to produce work of a high standard
• Show initiative in a range of contexts
• Develop a rich and varied vocabulary across subjects
• Understand the value of learning
• Listen attentively so as to understand

Our school is organised into 2 classes: Class 1 (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2) and Class 2 (Years 3,4, and 6)

Reception children form the ‘Foundation Stage’ which caters for children from 3-5 (4-5 years old in our school).They follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Curriculum, the prime areas of which are: Personal, Social and Emotional Development, Physical Development, Communication & Language. The ‘specific areas of learning’ are: Literacy, Mathematics, Understanding the world and Expressive Arts & Design.

For Key Stage 1 phonics we use Letters and Sounds and we use a variety of reading schemes including The Oxford Reading Tree.

Key Stage 1 (Years 1 & 2) and Key Stage 2 (Years 3-6) follow the National Curriculum, which is made up of the core subjects; English, Science, Mathematics, Computing and R.E. It also includes the Foundation subjects; Art & Design, Design Technology, Geography, History and Music, Citizenship, Personal, Health & Social Education and Modern Foreign Languages. Our curriculum is taught through a theme with a strong emphasis on creativity.
