Curriculum

“When educating the minds of our children we must not forget to educate their hearts.”Dalai Lama

Our pupils are encouraged to immerse themselves in a stimulating curriculum and strive for ambition as successful learners.

We motivate our pupils to have excellent dispositions and attitudes, as this is the main ingredient to be the best learner. Reading for pleasure is key to learning and this has a high priority in our daily planning.

We aim for academic excellence and value progress of every child. Equality of opportunity for all is key to achieving success across the curriculum and it is key that we spot talent and celebrate this in our school community daily.

Teach me and I remember.
Involve me and I learn”.Benjamin Franklin
