Curriculum

The following section details our school’s curriculum design and content. We understand that education is about the whole child and we are also aware of the importance of knowledge. We have developed a truly broad curricular offer. It incorporates a broad range of subjects in our Independence Curriculum. We enable pupils to gain excellent community understanding in and out of school through our Attitude Curriculum and we focus on the development of every child’s character through our Resilience curriculum.
