What is curriculum?
We use the word 'Curriculum' as an over-arching term to describe what we learn, how it is taught and then how we assess the learning.
Curriculum is carefully planned based on the science of learning. Teachers use this understanding of how we learn to ensure that their subject curriculum teaches the right knowledge and that it is sequenced in a way that best supports the learning for each child.
Supporting equality in our curriculum
Our curriculum is designed to provide opportunities for all pupils, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, religious belief, sexual orientation and socio-economic background. We actively promote a harmonious environment across the school to enable all pupils to achieve the highest standards in their learning and make good progress. We are committed to closing gaps in progress and attainment for all learners.
Our Inclusion department work closely with our pastoral leads and teachers to identify and remove barriers to learning and participation. Our approach to teaching and learning ensures we meet a diversity of needs to promote spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, with particular reference to issues of equality and diversity.
