Curriculum Intent

Learning to Love, Loving to Learn.

At Servite, our curriculum is carefully crafted so that our children develop their academic, social and cultural capital. Our curriculum teaches our children that possibilities are endless and that there are no limits to what their ambitions may be. Our broad and balanced curriculum promotes curiosity and a love and thirst for learning. It is ambitious and empowers our children to become independent and resilient. We strive for academic excellence and want our children to have high aspirations for themselves. The bespoke design of our curriculum ensures that an effective balance of broad learning opportunities are available for the holistic development of our children.

Together as a community we are guided by our faith and we encourage our children to live and act according to Gospel values. Our children come to school filled with joy as each new day begins with possibilities. Our children feel safe. They take risks, ask questions, make mistakes, learn to trust, share their feelings and grow.

We encourage our children to celebrate success and build on disappointment in order to develop resilience. We want to equip them with not only the minimum statutory requirements of the National Curriculum but to prepare them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life.

We want our children to use the vibrancy of our great city and local area to learn from other cultures, respect diversity, cooperate with one another and appreciate what they have. Our curriculum promotes equity for all, providing equal opportunities and celebrating diversity. We achieve this by providing a strong SMSC curriculum, with British Values and our core values of Ambition, Possibilities, Faith, Love, Respect and Community placed at the heart of everything we do.

We enrich their time in our school with memorable, unforgettable experiences and provide opportunities which are normally out of reach. We firmly believe that it is not just about what happens in the classroom, it is about the added value we offer to really inspire our children.

“School is one of the most vital experiences a child will ever have in their lives and it is our duty that it is the best one.”
