OUR CURRICULUM

The TWO Year Rolling Programme

Two Year Rolling Programme

Working with the pupils, staff and the school community we have created a two-year rolling programme which consists of twelve inspirational, broad, overarching themes that are relevant and maximise opportunities for depth of learning. Each unit of work is built around a ‘Big Idea’ which is created to enthuse the children and provide a meaningful context for their learning. 

There is also a linked ‘Big Event’ which provides first-hand experiences and an opportunity to gain a better understanding of the theme.  As pupils progress along their learning journey they will focus on key texts which will help to fully immerse them in their learning.  We encourage parental participation and integrate publication and celebration of learning into our topic outcomes. When we go to space, as you can see below from our footage, we want everyone to have gone to space.
