Curriculum Highlights

Our Hawthorn curriculum is aligned to the National Curriculum and is guided by the Pathfinder Progression documents for each subject. Core areas of learning are revisited so that pupils develop a deeper understanding with prior learning being built upon. Enrichment such as whole school Experience Days, sports competitions, music and arts initiatives, educational trips and workshops, after school clubs and residential trips. Pupils are challenged not only to develop their understanding, but to master and articulate it. Ultimately, at Hawthorn our curriculum aims to spark our children’s curiosity and cultivate a passion for life-long learning. We have designed our curriculum around our six core values: Creativity, Resilience, Respect, Thoughtfulness, Teamwork and Community. The curriculum also supports spiritual, moral, social and cultural development to prepare children for life in modern Britain.
