• It is built on essential early years foundations; the characteristics of effective learning. 
• It is knowledge rich.
• It aims to raise aspirations of all learners.
• It is sequenced to develop the knowledge and skills pupils need to excel and become confident, caring and accomplished learners. 

Implementation- How do we do this?

• Across the curriculum pupils will take part in lots of first hand experiences including off site visits to develop our pupil's cultural capital and enrich our learning opportunities.
• We have ensured meaningful links are built across learning themes.
• We are a community school and as such, we offer regular community experiences.
• Our ASPIRE values form the basis of our curriculum toolboxes- our planning tool to deliver our curriculum.
