Learning is based on the English National Curriculum’s Early Years Foundation Stage Framework. This offers a core, theme-based curriculum with plenty of free-flow learning so children enjoy a variety of rich and meaningful experiences. As they explore, they’re encouraged to think creatively and be physically active. This means our children develop a positive attitude towards learning as they gain confidence, foster social skills and develop physically. This prepares children for their educational journey ahead.
Based on the English National Curriculum, our Primary school teaching builds on the foundations set in Early Years. We focus on core skills including English, Spanish, Reading, Mathematics and Physical Education. And we support this withcross-curricular activities that inspire children, encourage their curiosity and build their confidence. This enables all children to explore their personal areas of interest and skill. Well-being sits at the heart of our primary school.
Our Secondary School sits side-by-side with our Primary School making it an easy transition for pupils.
