We aim to provide an exciting curriculum which brings out the best in every child, builds on their strengths and enables them to develop a life long love of learning. The creative curriculum is a carefully planned thematic approach to teaching and learning designed to support children’s natural curiosity and stimulate their creativity. Teaching is stimulating, enthusiastic and challenging. It stems from an expert knowledge of the curriculum. A variety of teaching methods are used to give productive learning experiences for the whole class, individuals and groups of pupils. It offers children the opportunity to work in depth, giving them the time they need to reflect, consolidate and apply their learning in a range of contexts. Direct experience is placed at the centre of the curriculum so the teachers draw out and develop children’s thinking, scaffolding next steps.

Children, adults and parents work with each other, drawing resources from the school, the locality and the wider community to create a challenging and exciting curriculum. All children have an entitlement to a well resourced and rich learning environment that promotes their sense of responsibility and autonomy. The school will demonstrate an atmosphere that promotes respect and consideration so that children learn to value each other and the environment in which they live and learn.
