Preview

It is our policy that all learners have access to a broad and balanced curriculum that takes

into account the ages, aptitudes and needs of all learners, including those with an EHC plan/

Statement. This will take into account the requirements of The National Curriculum 2014,

The Equality Act 2010 and the reforms for children with SEN 2014.

Our aim is for our Curriculum Statement to be supported by appropriate plans and schemes of work which are implemented effectively. An essential objective is that our Curriculum Framework, plans and schemes of work which uphold the Fundamental British Values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.

The table below provides a summary exemplar for details about each subject and any enrichment/out-of-hours activities in the planned curriculum, which is then explained in more detail.

All optional The specific vocational subjects on offer will be assessed and agreed depending on cohort mix at the start of each academic year. This will be reviewed termly

Vocational subjects will be delivered by vocational tutors or contracted to local AP providers.

The course list above is not exhaustive. There will also be a range of activities offered after school hours, related to the curriculum eg.’ready steady cook’, garden box design. It is also important to consider the amount of learning hours that students require for each course. With this in mind, the number of option subjects will be as manageable as possible, whilst giving students as wide a portfolio of subjects as possible. This is particularly true for students who spend part of their week off-site at College or in work experience.

Primary Curriculum

Our primary curriculum is under-pinned by 7 thematic areas:

Linguistic

Learners are supported to develop their communication skills and increase their command of

language through the interactive use of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Lessons are

provided in both written and spoken English.

Mathematical

Learners are supported to make calculations, understand and appreciate relationships and

patterns in number and space and to develop the capacity to think logically and express

themselves clearly. Their knowledge and understanding of mathematics is developed in a

variety of ways, including practical activity, exploration and discussion.

Scientific

Learners are supported to increase their knowledge and understanding of nature, materials

and forces whilst developing the skills associated with science as a process of enquiry, such

as observing, forming hypotheses, conducting experiments and recording their findings.

Technological

Learners are supported to gain skills that can include the use of information and

communications technology (ICT), developing, planning and communicating ideas, working

with tools, equipment, materials and components to produce good quality products, and

evaluating processes and products.

Human and social

Learners are supported to learn about people and their environment, and how human action,

now and in the past, has influenced events and conditions. History and geography make a

strong contribution in this area.

Physical

Learners are supported to develop physical control, co-ordination and tactical skills, as well

as the ability to evaluate and improve upon their performance. Learners also acquire

knowledge and understanding of the basic principles of fitness and health.

Aesthetic and creative

Learners develop skills concerned with the processes of making, composing and inventing.

Art, music, dance, drama and the study of literature all make a strong contribution in these

areas.

Particular aspects of the primary cohort include ensuring a strong focus on equality and diversity and understanding the community they live in.

Schemes of Work

Plans and schemes of work illustrate how each area is woven into the school curriculum.

Pupils attending the school have a wide range of learning, social, emotional and behavioural

needs and our ultimate aim is to deliver a curriculum that not only provides for academic

development but also provides our learners with the confidence, improved self–esteem and

effective strategies to cope with their education in the future.

Page 5: Curriculum Plan · will be taken for assessing pupils’ learning and progress. A week-by-week breakdown will be used. ... Maths and all the humanities subjects. The deve

Our provision allows for up to 25 hours taught time per week. Each project has full access to

the Cornerstones schemes of work, which allow for a broad, creative, cross-curricular

approach and cover a wide range of topics. They have the flexibility to be adapted to suit

individual needs to ensure challenge and success, equality and access for all.

The schemes of work will consist of long, medium and short- term plans. The long term plan

will set out general topics to be covered. The medium term plans will set out the range of

topics for each subject to be taught over each term. It is usual for schemes to set out

objectives for learning within each topic, linked to IEP targets, and for these objectives to be

featured in planning for individual lessons and in assessment. The short-term plans will show

how individual topics are to be taught, what resources will be used and what opportunities

will be taken for assessing pupils’ learning and progress. A week-by-week breakdown will be

used. Daily plans will set out objectives, differentiated content and approaches for the

different levels of capability and need amongst the pupils. They will also make reference to

links between subjects, such as noting opportunities to use information and communication

technology (ICT) and literacy/numeracy skills within the topic.

By ensuring there is a broad and coherent curriculum in place, progression and continuity

will be ensured so there is no duplication and unplanned repetition.

Project timetables for classes or individuals will provide further information as to how the curriculum is managed, particularly with regard to the balance and coverage of subjects taught.
