Subjects
Planning for History, Geography, Art and DT is taught through our ‘Connected Curriculum’ where learning sequences are closely linked. Other subjects: Computing, Physical Education, Music, Religious and World Views (RWV), Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) and Modern Foreign Languages (French) are taught discretely, although links are made to the Connected Curriculum when directly relevant.
The key drivers of this approach are that our curriculum: Aims high, ensures children are ready and able, encouraged to think critically and explore creativity as well as invest in themselves. In order to secure a high quality curriculum we ensure specialist teachers are deployed alongside our teachers in MfL and PE to ensure access, depth and progression is secured in alignment with our curriculum statement.
