In line with the Foundation Phase curriculum and revised National Curriculum for Wales, classes take a skills-based, topic approach to teaching. Topics are determined by the children’s interests and needs. A planned programme of teaching is then implemented which incorporates a range of curriculum areas. Children are encouraged to develop their skills and recognise that these skills can be used across the curriculum.
The Dee Valley Federation is currently working towards the New Curriculum for Wales in line with current training available. The Welsh Government intend the new curriculum to be in place for September 2021.
