Curriculum Plans

Our curriculum is planned in a way that builds on our core values:

Community, Aspiration, Respect, Experiences

We have chosen six 'Big Ideas' which drive the curriculum, are important and relevant to our community, and allow the children to explore concepts further in depth:

Belief, Belonging, Sustainability, Resilience, Change, Consequence. 

From these we pose a 'Big Question' which enables children to explore these concepts further and allows for wider exploration of the curriculum, make connections and encourages retrieval and reflection.

These long-term plans outline the topics and texts covered in each subject across each phase. As working documents, they are subject to change at short notice. In the Early Years, our experience team of practitioners work within the best practice principles for the age and stage of children. You can read more about Nursery here and Reception here.

Using our long-term plans and 'Big questions', teaching staff create a more detailed medium-term plan each term to reflect the knowledge, skills and key vocabulary that will be taught in each subject.
