The Oakthorpe Curriculum

Our Curriculum

At Oakthorpe we believe our broad and balanced, language-rich curriculum will promote a love of learning. Our curriculum is planned so that every child is given the skills and knowledge to make excellent progress within school and to prepare them to make a meaningful contribution to the wider world.

Through the National Curriculum and the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework, we introduce core knowledge to develop pupils’ knowledge, understanding and skills. This is enriched by the experiences provided in our wider school curriculum.

Our curriculum drivers and core values of excellence, creativity, confidence, responsibility and respect underpin school life and are developed through our curriculum. The core skills taught in Literacy and Maths support children to make excellent progress across the curriculum. Our unique curriculum offers children rich experiences in visual and performing arts, developing their ability to communicate confidently. Children learn to be responsible for their own learning and to be well-rounded citizens who treat others with respect and consideration.

You can find information about our curriculum in the subject areas below.
