Curriculum Highlights

We believe that reading is the gateway to all learning and this is at the centre of our curriculum. Our curriculum is ambitious for all children and promotes cultural capital via local and national visits, high-quality resources and first-hand experiences. Starting in EYFS, we introduce the children to the world around them. We nurture the appreciation of diversity and teach children to celebrate everything they have in common and to respect different points of view, traditions, religions and lifestyles.

SEND Provision

The pupil premium is allocated to schools in respect of children from low-income families who are currently known to be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM) and children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months. This applies to both mainstream and non-mainstream settings. We are committed to raising the attainment and life chances of all our pupils, including those who are disadvantaged. We provide consistent high-quality teaching and work hard to ensure that our pupils are able to access a broad and balanced curriculum. We quickly identify potential barriers to learning and use research-based interventions and targeted booster and challenge groups to support pupils of all abilities to make rapid progress. We rigorously monitor the impact of these interventions on pupils’ progress and attainment and adapt our approach in light of this where necessary.
