Curriculum Policy

We aim:

To provide a broad and balanced curriculum that gives our children the necessary skills and knowledge to gain entry into their chosen senior schools at either 11+ or 13+.

To enrich the learning experience for our pupils beyond the usual confines of the National Curriculum, 11+ and the prescriptive Common Entrance.

To promote in our children a curiosity and love of learning.

To teach our children the knowledge and skills necessary for them to take responsibility for independent learning now, and in future years.

To teach them the necessary IT skills so that they become valuable tools to develop and sustain the learning experience.

To develop our children's critical and creative faculties and the skills to research, sort, record and evaluate information.

To offer the children opportunities to develop their prowess in the dramatic, artistic, musical and sporting arenas.

To produce ‘cultured’ children who have an awareness of, and an appreciation for, other cultures as well as their own.

To promote citizenship and an understanding of the importance of stewardship of the local and global environment.

To develop our pupils’ moral compasses and enhance the children’s spiritual awareness.

To expose our children to challenges outside the classroom to help them build character, encourage teamwork, foster initiative and take informed decisions involving risk.

To instil in our children the values of tolerance, compassion, honesty, kindness, courtesy and consideration.
