Our Curriculum
Our curriculum is designed to develop children’s character, intellect and curiosity. We have high aspirations for our children and aim to offer them a broad, challenging and engaging curriculum.
By the time children leave our school they will:
- Be kind, confident, well-mannered, thoughtful members of society who embody our Christian values of perseverance, respect, friendship and forgiveness
- Speak confidently and in Standard English, with a broad range of vocabulary, in formal situations, for example children should be able to argue a point and greet a visitor
- Have knowledge of a core set of books and poetry that they can make links to and draw upon
- Have a broad general knowledge and understanding of the world for example of historical facts, geographical sense of place and religions

Year Group Curriculum Overviews
We follow the National Curriculum from Years 1 to 6. We have organised the National Curriculum programmes of study into our own curriculum.
From time to time, we change our topics and have a whole school focus, to add interest and excitement to the curriculum. We also have regular themed weeks, such as Science Week, Book Week and Faith Week.
