Curriculum
Our curriculum is ambitious, coherently sequenced, and enriched through carefully selected schemes that support deep, connected learning. To ensure high quality progression of knowledge and skills we use evidence-based programmes such as:
- Kapow Primary
- Lancashire’s Talk Write
- Lancashire PE Passport
- Little Wandle Phonics
- PLAN Science
- SCARF PSHE
- White Rose Maths
Our aim is to equip every child with the academic, social, and cultural capital they need to thrive in an ever-changing world. Our inclusive approach ensures that the needs of pupils with SEND are accurately identified and effectively met so that barriers to learning and/or well-being are overcome. This enables pupils with SEND to access a broad and balanced curriculum, so that they can achieve well and develop well, both as individuals, and as members of the school and wider community.

Each subject has its own Subject Champion, who is responsible, amongst other things for Analysing what is being delivered across the school, how and the impact of the delivery in their subject, Building a secure subject they champion by carrying out auditing, purchasing and organising resources, filling any gaps in coverage and ensuring agreed procedures are being carried out, and Cultivating their subject by holding pupil and staff discussion and spending time developing their own expertise in the subject through training and research.
Every Subject Champion has been allocated time to develop this, and they work with a member of SLT who supports them through this process. Pupil discussion and staff evaluations indicate that for the units that have been recently investigated, children have retained the key learning at the point of the discussion.
