We ask questions and find out the answers and solutions for ourselves.
Our entire curriculum is enquiry (question) led through inspirational topics in which the children choose their own lines of enquiry over each half term. Children and adults use Bloom's taxonomy to encourage higher order questioning and thinking within topic question planning and regularly through many lessons. (SEE classroom pages for more on BLOOM'S HOTS)
In each half term topic, there is at least one educational visit and guest visitor to give the children concrete, real-life experiences and opportunities for hands on exploration. These experiences then inform and give a strong sense of purpose to all other areas of the curriculum, especially reading, writing and speaking and listening. Skills in all subjects are taught, learnt and applied through each topic, especially skills in Maths and Computing.
Science, Geography, History, Art and Design and technology enquiry and application skills also feature heavily within all topics.
Art, Music and Drama are taught by specialist teachers. These subjects also link to enrich the overall half term topic.
RE is taught within a whole school approach through special theme events throughout the year.
PE is also taught weekly by specialist staff.
We follow the Jenny Moseley circle time and golden rules approach to PHSCE, this includes the content of SEAL (Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning, National Strategies resource 2003) positive relationships and this is taught throughout the year in all classes, during assemblies and through special visitors or theme events.
We follow the new draft 2014 National Curriculum high expectations and objectives for all subjects.
