Curriculum Intent

At Radwinter CofE Primary School, we have designed our curriculum with pupils’ learning at the centre.  We recognise that a curriculum has to be broad, balanced and challenging to offer pupils opportunities to grow as individuals as well as learners.  Our school values the input of its pupils, parents and the local community with regards to the planning and delivery of the curriculum.  We believe pupils get a well-rounded education if everyone is involved in shaping it.   

We aim to ensure pupils enjoy learning and feel prepared for life after school recognising their individual talents and feeling they have a worthy contribution to make.  We also intend to offer our pupils new and exciting experiences through both our Essential Experiences curriculum and our extra-curricular activities that are designed to build resilience, confidence and self-esteem.  Our curriculum will be delivered in accordance with the Equality Act 2010, through a variety of methods, including those outlined below.

Classroom-based learning: Accessing different learning resources and equipment to broaden pupils’ knowledge, and making cross-curricular links where possible within lesson plans, so that pupils can draw upon knowledge from different subjects and understand how each topic plays a part in everyday life. Classroom teaching also includes one-to-one and small group tuition for pupils who require additional support or challenge.

Extra-curricular activities: We provide a variety of extra-curricular activities for pupils that enhance their learning experience, form personal connections with their peers and teach skills essential for life after school.
