Our Curriculum:
Our curriculum is linked to the needs of our children and is designed to provide challenging, purposeful, innovative, real, collaborative and aspirational learning experiences for our children. It aims to connect them to the wider world through working with community partners.
Through these and a commitment to the principles of assessment for learning, we aim for all our
children to meet their full potential.
Our ethos value and our key learning values each have a creature assigned to them to allow all children to access the different concepts
Babu, the deer, is our mascot for respect.
Casey, the rabbit, is our mascot for collaboration.
Charlotte, the squirrel, is our mascot for creativity.
Solo, the hedgehog, is our mascot for independence.
