Early Years Education
Our Early Years Foundation Stage programme develops essential skills through structured play and creative exploration. Qualified practitioners deliver the statutory framework, focusing on communication, physical development, and personal, social and emotional growth. The curriculum prepares children for Key Stage 1 through age-appropriate learning environments.
Phonics Instruction
Systematic synthetic phonics teaching follows the Letters and Sounds programme. Daily sessions develop decoding skills, blending sounds, and reading fluency. Progress is monitored through regular assessments, with targeted interventions for children requiring additional support to achieve age-related expectations.
Maths Mastery Programme
The mathematics curriculum focuses on developing conceptual understanding through concrete, pictorial and abstract approaches. Daily lessons cover number sense, calculations, geometry and problem-solving. Differentiated instruction ensures all pupils progress at appropriate rates towards mastery of mathematical concepts.
Science Curriculum
Practical science lessons develop investigative skills across biology, chemistry and physics topics. The curriculum builds scientific knowledge from EYFS to Year 6, with cross-curricular links to mathematics and computing. Regular experiments and outdoor learning enhance understanding of scientific principles.

French instruction from Year 3 develops speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. Lessons incorporate cultural awareness, songs and interactive activities.
