Curriculum 2020/2021
We adapted our curriculum offer for the first half of the autumn term to provide everyone with the opportunity, and support, on their return to school to re-connect with the routines and predictable patterns it gives to their day. Trauma-informed practice advocates a P(playfulness) A(acceptance) C(curiosity) E(empathy) model to supporting children and adults on their return to school. We believe this fits well with our own ambition and motto where we want all children to be curious, be resilient and be compassionate. These formed the core of our offer during the first half term.
The second half of the Autumn term, we recognised that the children were ready to return to their previous routines with regards the curriculum and therefore the plan was devised following objectives that the children would ordinarily have been covering. The only exception to this was maths where we continued to work from the DfE/NCETM guidance which was published in July 2020.
From the Spring term 2021, we are following the previously planned curriculum as outlined on this website.
As an Anglican school, the precepts of Anglican education remain at our core and this will continue throughout school from the start of the new academic year. This includes recognising and valuing the Church of England Vision for Education – Deeply Christian, Serving the Common Good. This is worked around the four core elements of wisdom, hope, community and dignity and recognises people of all and no faith.
