Subjects
Mathematics, Science, Computing, Physical Education (PE), Music, Religious and World Views (RWV), Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) and Modern Foreign Languages (French) are taught discretely. This ensures the substantive and disciplinary knowledge is robust.
History, Geography, Art and design and Design technology are taught through our Connected Curriculum, where learning sequences are linked together. This develops knowledge, which the children can transfer from one subject to another. Frequently, the Connected Curriculum sequences are reflected in the English, so that the learning can be deepened through guided reading and writing about them.
In order to secure a high quality curriculum, we also deploy subject specialists, alongside our teachers, PE and MFL. This supports access, depth and progression in alignment with our curriculum values.
Subject Long Term Plans (LTPs)
The Subject Long Term Plans outline the content that is taught for each subject in our 3-11 curriculum. It includes an overview of what is taught in the Early Years and how this prepares children for Key Stage 1 and then Key Stage 2.
The LTPs have been carefully designed to ensure that children learn and retain the National Curriculum; therefore, it is planned in an systematic, meaningful and relevant manner, that reflects the needs and backgrounds of the school community.
