Our Approach

As a maintained school, we must follow the statutory requirements of the National Curriculum.  However, our ambitions for children go far beyond this.  We have designed a carefully structured curriculum that ensures children are able to learn more and do more, building on their learning year after year.  With support from subject specialists, we have designed a programme of learning with clear expectations enabling our children to become expert learners.  The outcomes of the National Curriculum are broken down into components which enable the children to build their knowledge and skills over time.  With plenty of opportunity for practise, children become confident learners, able to take on any challenge.
