CURRICULUM

A comprehensive and engaging curriculum for our pupils.

We designed the curriculum to give all of our children a thorough grounding in the core subjects of Literacy and Numeracy plus the Arts, Humanities and Sport.

In both core subjects, we teach one year ahead of the National Curriculum, ensuring that all of our children are extremely well prepared for the acceleration in their learning that takes place in the Upper House of the school.

Pupils also enjoy regular sessions devoted to swimming, PE and Dance, plus a weekly visit to Coram’s Fields to practise many other sports.

Literacy and communication

Cultivating a range of reading and writing skills.

As a school, we adopt a text-based approach to Literacy, thoroughly exploring topic-based books to enable children to immerse themselves in the text and write for a range of purposes.

Weekly oracy sessions also allow children to engage in discussions and debate, encouraging them to think philosophically and ask thought-provoking questions. Opportunities for individual presentations additionally enable children to hone their speaking and listening skills in front of their peers.

Literacy lessons are supplemented with phonics and spelling sessions plus daily reading with class teachers. Fine motor skills are developed through discrete weekly handwriting lessons and are reinforced through extended writing projects.

As the children move up the school, early grammatical concepts are taught with a continued focus on spelling rules. Children also begin to engage in whole class reading sessions with a focus on emerging comprehension skills.

School life they'll love forever.

numeracy

Problem-solving and fundamental skills.

In Numeracy, all pupils cover pure and applied Mathematics; number and algebra; shape, space, and measures; and handling data.

A further focus on conceptual understanding and verbal reasoning is embedded within the Numeracy curriculum to enhance competence in problem-solving.

Combined, this encourages our children to increase their confidence in problem-solving while also building on their fundamental skills.
