When we design and review our curriculum, we look to answer; what do we teach, when do we teach it and why? Our curriculum needs to address our values, aims and purposes and we seek to meet the needs and interests of our children through a broad, balanced, relevant and engaging curriculum. Crucially, children must be able to recall the most important aspects of our curriculum in the long term.
THE AIM
For children to leave Prince Bishops as happy, confident children who make a positive contribution to their local, national and international community and who are exceptionally well prepared for the next phase in their education.
VALUES AND PURPOSES
Education at Prince Bishops is a route to:
WHEN DESIGNING OUR CURRICULUM, WE HAVE ENSURED THAT:
In this section of our website, there are class pages that contain the curriculum maps for that particular year group and also pages that give a whole school overview in each subject. These plans are flexible. We are committed to responding to the needs of our children and, within the demands of the National Curriculum, teachers will consult with subject leaders and they have the professional discretion to adapt their plans if necessary. In order for children to gain a growing understanding of the world in which they live, plans may also be adapted in response to local, national and international events.
Under the 'Subject in Action at Prince Bishops' title, within each subject page, teachers and subject leaders have provided examples of implementation and impact.
