Curriculum Implementation Statement

Our ambitious curriculum is implemented through successful subject leadership and secure subject knowledge.  

Subject leaders are given training opportunities to keep developing their own subject knowledge, skills and understanding so they can support curriculum development and their colleagues throughout the school.   

Subject leaders write subject action plans identifying priorities and actions to ensure the effective implementation for their subject. 

The school is well resourced in terms of learning materials, books and technology. 

External specialists and providers are used to enhance and enrich the delivery of some curriculum areas, e.g., Music and Italian.  

All curriculum subjects have their own statements of Intent, Implementation and Impact.  These can be found on each subject page on the school website or read by clicking on each subject link below:
