Curriculum Ethos:
At Stokesay Primary School, our curriculum is based around providing experiences that enhance children's understanding of key knowledge and skills. These are achieved by developing children holistically and furthering their curiosity of the world around them through exploration, as well as developing their character and learning behaviours so that they become successful, lifelong learners.
Engagement, exploration and experiences:
Pupils are encouraged to be inquisitive learners who can think for themselves. Opportunities are provided within the curriculum for problem solving and innovation through first-hand experiences.
Key skills and knowledge:
Our curriculum is sequential and logically organised to ensure layered learning that encourages profession of skills, with key knowledge revisited and built upon.
Positive learning behaviours:
Pupils are taught resilience and allowed to safely make mistakes and learn from them. Our curriculum gives opportunities for self and peer assessment to support pupils to become discerning, reflective learners.
Character:
Pupils learn to communicate well with others, appreciate equality and diversity and prepare them for life in the modern world. Our curriculum encourages our pupils to understand their roles and responsibilities within local, national and global communities.
Values:
Our curriculum prepares pupils for a life without limits. Our pupils leave us as responsible citizens; they are conscious of their own impact upon the world and others whilst holding a relentless curiosity about the world around them. We ensure that in each of our Subject of Intent for each subject has our school values threaded through them, embedding further holistic development within our children.
Details of individual subjects are listed below. Should you require additional information about our curriculum, please arrange to speak to Mr Vaughan via the school office.
