EYFS Curriculum
Our Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum develops essential skills through play-based learning. Children aged 3-5 engage in structured activities covering communication, physical development, and personal, social and emotional growth. The program prepares pupils for Key Stage 1 through a balanced approach combining teacher-led and child-initiated learning.
Phonics Instruction
Systematic synthetic phonics teaching follows the Letters and Sounds framework. Daily sessions develop decoding skills, blending sounds, and reading fluency. Progress is monitored through regular assessments, with targeted interventions for children needing additional support to ensure all pupils achieve age-related expectations in literacy.
Maths Education
Our mathematics curriculum builds conceptual understanding through concrete, pictorial and abstract approaches. Lessons focus on number sense, calculations, geometry and problem-solving. Differentiated instruction caters to all abilities, with mastery principles ensuring depth of understanding before progression to new concepts across Key Stages 1 and 2.
Science Teaching
Practical science lessons develop investigative skills and scientific knowledge. Topics cover biology, chemistry and physics concepts appropriate to each key stage. Children learn to formulate hypotheses, conduct experiments, and analyse results while developing understanding of scientific processes and their real-world applications.
SEND Support
Our dedicated SENDCO provides tailored support for pupils with special educational needs. Individualised learning plans, specialist resources and targeted interventions ensure access to the curriculum. Close collaboration with parents and external agencies facilitates personalised approaches to overcome learning barriers and maximise pupil potential.
