Curriculum Highlights

Reading sits at the heart of our curriculum; enabling pupils to access the key to their future successes. Vocabulary development also takes priority and in order to achieve this, our knowledge organisers and plans have been meticulously developed by staff and subject leaders over time to ensure key knowledge; skills and vocabulary are not only taught and learnt but embedded and built upon for every topic in every subject across school. Our aims include reading, communicating with others through written and spoken form, writing in Standard English, solving problems and reasoning about maths, calculating efficiently using a range of mental and formal methods, being curious about the world and the faiths of others, and discovering life-long passions and interests. We ensure equal access to learning for all pupils, with high expectations for every pupil and appropriate levels of challenge and support. Parents are invited to work with their children on a home-school links project and to a range of planned events throughout the school calendar, fostering positive relationships and reflecting our Together We Can ethos.
