Curriculum

Curriculum Statement

Governing Bodies are required to produce a Curriculum Statement annually. This replaces the requirement under the School Framework and Standards Act 1998 for a curriculum plan.

At Ashton St. Peter’s Church of England VA Primary School this statement sets out the principles underpinning the curriculum and reflects the school’s commitment to developing all aspects of their pupils’ lives.

At Ashton St Peter’s C of E VA Primary School, we aim to foster a life-long love of learning, through adopting a highly practical, skills based and cross-curricular approach to learning. Our Creative Curriculum aims to deliver a twenty first century education that will equip our children with the skills required to be an independent and responsible citizen. We aim to deliver this through:

Embedding ‘Every Child Matters’ in all learning opportunities
Developing a sense of community and belonging, contributing to our community through direct interaction – making links with local organisations
Equipping children with skills for life, through practical experiences
Making learning more meaningful, through putting it into context
Holding a flexible timetabling approach to make space for depth of study
Establishing cross-curricular links to foster broader understanding
