A primary focus of our curriculum is to identify children’s interests but to also identify their barriers to learning in the community we serve. We aim to provide an opportunity to develop interests and overcome barriers through our ‘Curriculum Drivers’. These ‘drivers’ are used to underpin the direction and development of all areas of school life and to ensure our curriculum is enriched and personalised in order to meet the needs, interests and ambitions of our children and families.

We believe in a flexible curriculum which is driven by our pupils’ interests and one which can be responsive to world or local events/needs. We review the curriculum regularly, including the ‘Curriculum Drivers’, and engage all staff in the process of continually improving the offer for our children.
