OUR CURRICULUM
Please click on all hyperlinks for more information
Our curriculum is based on the Christian principle of Wisdom and intends to foster opportunities for children to learn about the World, one another and God. We strive to promote a curriculum which imparts knowledge; fosters curiosity, is language rich promoting the acquisition of a wider vocabulary and a love of reading, and builds cultural capital.
We define our curriculum as the totality of a child's learning experience whilst they are with us, ensuring that they are secondary ready and their 'voyage of discovery and opportunity' at our school equips them for the next stage of their journey.
We value all learners and aim to ensure every member of our school community can flourish as this is 'life in all its fullness'. Our curriculum aims to give hope and prepare children for the future in which they can fully participate as responsible and confident citizens.

Knowledge Organisers
We share intended learning outcomes with parents and children at the onset of each unit of study though our knowledge organisers.They highlight knowledge gains and vocabulary that will be introduced as well as suggesting a book children will be reading as part of the unit. The organisers are a useful assessment tool for all and promote additional hone learning opportunities too. These can be accessed by clicking on them.
