Curriculum details
The curriculum is based on the EYFS framework and the National Curriculum. It is broad and balanced with programmes of activities to ensure pupil progress. Resources have been invested across primary and KS3 to provide a coherent programme as pupils progress. The language of instruction is English and pupils demonstrate good speaking and listening across the curriculum. The PSHE programme reinforces the school's values, but the Year 9 programme does not currently provide sufficient guidance in preparation for Key Stage 4 (KS4) and career decisions. As the school expands to the secondary stage, IGCSE programmes are planned for the next academic year, with recruitment of computer science and humanities specialists anticipated and ICT infrastructure being developed to support learning.
