Curriculum

At St. Mary’s we believe that the purpose of education is to bring about goodness: human flourishing.

We believe that to do this, our curriculum should encourage independence, curiosity and creativity; produce collaborators, innovators, leaders and, above all, it should help our children to understand what it means to be human.

 

With high expectations, nurture and high quality teaching, we shape the children to be good citizens that leave with the skills required for the wider world. We encourage children to enquire, self-reflect, and make connections in order to give them the confidence to make decisions, try new things and enhance their cultural capital.

 

We believe that our children deserve inspirational learning opportunities. Curriculum planning ensures that children are immersed in exciting, knowledge rich topics. They are challenged to work creatively whilst deepening their knowledge and understanding through highly engaging and enriching experiences.

 

 

Subject Long Term Plans

Each subject long term plan details the key invaluable knowledge and vocabulary taught in each year group, to enable us to provide a knowledge rich curriculum, where skills are the by-product of the knowledge taught. Some curriculum areas follow a carefully selected scheme, which is also detailed in each document. There is a clear rationale behind the reason each scheme has been chosen. In addition, curriculum lessons are also enhanced with carefully matched and purposeful resources, which meet the individual needs of all our learners.
