Our Christ Church Curriculum follows the content and expectations of the National Curriculum. We have incorporated that content with our own focus areas, which are bespoke to our CCW community. You can view the core NC content for each year group, using the links at the side, with further detail on the Class Pages. We have also provided overviews of the Science and Foundation subjects for the Key Stages.
We base our science and topic elements of the curriculum on learning challenge questions, allowing us to explore subjects with the children, freeing us up to follow the interests of children within our classes and to allow for co-operative learning to research and present information in a variety of ways.
Within the topic elements, other subjects are inter-woven, including music, English, art and design, computing and design technology. Some aspects of these subjects are taught as separate lessons.
Maths and Science are taught as discrete subjects, with cross-curricular links made when appropriate.
The full details of what is to be covered in each half term, is found in the class newsletters. Home learning challenges are also linked to the exciting science, English and topic work which is taking place within classes.
Our aim is to fulfill the optimum learning potential of the individual child through the requirements of the National Curriculum; through our curriculum offer, which links and layers learning progressively and starts with the EYFS framework; thus leading to their intellectual, aesthetic, social, emotional and physical development. We are intending to continue to develop, evaluate and improve our curriculum learning opportunities, to ensure that we deliver a broad and balanced curriculum, which reflects life in modern Britain and our local community effectively. We have ambition for all children and aim to be fully inclusive, meeting the needs of all our learners.
We achieve this by employing various strategies for learning which include:
