Our Curriculum vision is captured in the phrase

 ‘Learning to embrace the future’.

We have developed a rich and vibrant curriculum that is based upon the following: 

Key drivers shape our curriculum and link directly to our Christian values:

• Creativity – inspiring and building self-expression and confidence
• Respect – for humankind and the environment
• Compassion – understanding that leads to a call to action and change
• Hope - learning to embrace the future

Big ideas link subjects through interconnected threads within learning journeys. Over time, they help children develop a deep understanding of all subjects and the interconnections between them:

• Humankind - Understanding what it means to be human and the cause and effect of human behaviour.
• Processes - Understanding the dynamic and physical processes that shape the world around us.
• Creativity - Understanding how everyday and exceptional creativity can inspire and change perceptions.
• Investigation - Understanding the importance of asking questions, formulating hypotheses, gathering information and analysing evidence.
• Materials - Understanding the unique and physical properties of all matter and how we interact with them.
• Nature - Understanding the complexities and interdependence of the plant and animal species that inhabit the world’s many ecosystems.
• Place - Understanding the visual, cultural, social and environmental aspects of different places around the world.
• Comparison - Understanding how and why things are the same or different.
• Significance - Understanding why significant people, places, events and inventions matter.
• Change - Understanding why and how things have changed over time.
