Curriculum

The children are taught the full National Curriculum. The core subjects of English, Maths, Science and ICT, are given emphasis to help the children to develop a depth of knowledge and understanding and to gain skills in these areas. There are objectives or goals setting out what children should know and be able to do at each stage in their schooling. These objectives are called Attainment Targets. For each subject there are descriptions of what the children should be taught to help him/her to achieve the Attainment Targets.

At the same time we try to organise the foundation subjects so the children are able to link and connect their thoughts and learning experiences, covering: History, Geography, ICT, DT, Art, Music, RE, PSHE and PE.
