Curriculum Highlights

The Pioneer Curriculum Framework has been designed to ensure that all children, no matter their ability, background or starting point, are provided with opportunities to build on learning term-on-term, year-on-year. Each term has a focussed topic theme in which the National Curriculum skills and knowledge from the different subjects are carefully aligned to ensure a correlated cross-curricular approach to children’s learning. Staff work in partnership with each other across all schools by sharing planning and resources, and supporting each other to be the best we can be in all we do.
