An authentic curriculum that builds purposefully on pupils’ skills and prior learning.
Over time, leaders and staff have developed a bespoke curriculum with pupil enquiry at the heart. The curriculum provides engaging and stimulating learning experiences within authentic contexts that build progressively on pupils’ skills and prior learning. Leaders maintain a clear focus on establishing consistent and effective approaches to teaching that align closely with the curriculum design. As a result, most pupils develop a shared and coherent understanding of their learning as they move through the school. They talk confidently about their work, reflect thoughtfully on their progress and understand their next steps clearly.
