Curriculum

At All Saints C of E Primary School, we recognise that every child is unique. Our curriculum promotes respect for all and celebrates diversity, while supporting pupils’ spiritual, moral and social development alongside strong academic and physical foundations.

We enrich learning through a wide range of experiences, helping children to build knowledge, develop vocabulary and raise aspirations so they are prepared for happy, healthy and successful lives.

Language is at the heart of our curriculum. Pupils are supported to develop a rich vocabulary and communicate confidently using a range of language structures across all subjects.

As a Voluntary Aided Church of England school, Religious Education and collective worship are central to school life, alongside a strong focus on personal, social and health education.

Please explore individual subject pages for further information, including policies and curriculum overviews.

How We Teach

Our teaching follows a clear and effective approach to support all learners:

  • Assess – We find out what children already know

  • Model – We show children how to do it

  • Practise – Children apply new learning with support

  • Feedback – We address misconceptions and strengthen understanding

  • Review – We revisit learning to help children remember more over time

Curriculum Policies and Further Information:

Our school curriculum meets the following set of principles that were designed by the teachers for our children using best practice guidance.

These have been grouped into four sections.

Moving the Children on

  • Teachers can accurately assess the attainment of all children.

  • Teachers are easily able to select learning objectives that challenge all children (including those who have SEND or EAL).

  • There is a clear progression of targets that enable the children to self-assess their learning.

Links to core subjects

  • Specific language structures and key vocabulary are included in all units of learning.

  • There are frequent opportunities for the children to use their mathematical learning in other subjects.

Purposeful Experiences

  • Children are given regular experiences of learning outside of school and with visitors.

  • Schemes of work encourage children to learn like a scientist, historian, geographer, artist, designer, musician, programmer etc.

  • Units of learning to be given a purpose, context and audience and include collaborative problem solving tasks.

Effective Delivery

  • Any policy, guidelines or scheme of work should be designed to be used by a teacher with little experience or limited subject knowledge.

  • There is an accessible bank of resources that teachers can use to deliver certain learning.
