Our curriculum has been designed to be broad and ambitious, enabling pupils to make strong progress. It is coherently planned and sequenced in all subject areas and as a whole entitlement. Pupils study the full national curriculum, which is brought to life through focused skill and knowledge based planning, making pupil engagement a priority. The curriculum meets the needs of all our pupils, including those with SEND, promoting fluency and independence for all children.
