At Tullos we recognise that the more actively involved children are in their own learning and in setting their own targets, the more they achieve and enjoy their time in school.

Curriculum for Excellence places learners at the heart of education. At its centre are four fundamental capacities. These capacities reflect and recognise the lifelong nature of education and learning. The four capacities are aimed at helping children and young people to become:

• Successful learners

• Confident individuals

• Responsible citizens

• Effective contributors

Within Curriculum for Excellence there are eight curricular areas:

• Expressive arts

• Health and wellbeing

• Languages (including English, Gaidhlig, Gaelic learners and modern languages)

• Mathematics

• Religious and moral education

• Sciences

• Social studies

• Technologies

All the curricular areas are planned for and delivered by either the class teacher or our specialist teachers and prior learning of the child is taken into account when planning the pathways and next steps.
