Establishing a vibrant and holistic curriculum

Ciplun

The school’s curriculum offers pupils a wealth of rich, exciting and creative opportunities that bring areas of learning together seamlessly and have a considerable impact on the growth of pupils’ wider skills. Interesting science investigations and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) projects enable pupils to extend and consolidate skills from across the curriculum effectively. The thoughtful use of external specialists and members of the community, enhance the curriculum considerably. For instance, older pupils learn about quilting from a member of the community before designing a tessellating tile pattern to decorate the school’s bat house. Opportunities such as this, make learning purposeful and engage pupils very well.
