  1. OUR CURRICULUM Our curriculum is broad, designed to meet the needs of all of our pupils, promote excellence and give all of our children as many opportunities as possible to develop and expand their horizons. Support and challenge is at the heart of our teaching. We understand that it is our job to prepare the children for their future in an ever-changing world.

  2. VALUES Our curriculum is based on our values and the context of our school, forming a golden thread which runs through our whole school. We support and challenge our children to develop their own self-worth, self-confidence, resilience, curiosity and to become responsible citizens.

Links with specific organisations and events enables the children to understand their place in local, national and global events .

Learning is inspired by hands-on, first-hand experiences, including use of our school grounds and visits to Windsor Castle. Residential visits in Year 3 and Year 4 provide first-hand experiences of contrasting environments, develop resilience, team work and make long-lasting memories. Through our Humanities Curriculum, our children are taught to research, compare and contrast, question, analyse and debate .

Spanish and Makaton are taught throughout the school. Japanese is taught to Year 2 - Year 4 by a native Japanese teacher. We enrich our curriculum further through our bi-annual International Day in school.

Our participation in the Windsor Sports Partnership provides our children with the range of sporting opportunities often only seen in larger schools. Every year group benefits from expert coaching, participation in tournaments, festivals and competitions with other schools. Our well-resourced school grounds have been designed to promote independent physical activity at play times.
