Curriculum Intent
At Christ Church we recognise that everyone is a ‘unique child of God’ with individual gifts and talents that need to be recognised and nurtured. Underpinned by the principles of the Early Years Foundation Stage, our curriculum has been designed with innovation, creativity and a sense of adventure at the heart; the curriculum enables our children to thrive and flourish, as well as feeling a strong sense of worth and achievement.
At Christ Church we provide a broad, balanced, rich and relevant curriculum through which we strive to inspire all of our children to develop curious minds and a love of learning. The school’s curriculum provides memorable experiences and rich opportunities for high-quality learning and wider personal development and well-being. Careful planning for progression of skills and knowledge enables pupils to take advantage of opportunities, responsibilities and experiences; allowing them to thrive and flourish throughout their lives.
The Christ Church curriculum embeds cultural capital throughout, ensuring we expose our children to a breadth of opportunities and experiences beyond their home environment. In addition to this, we also value and celebrate the many different cultures and backgrounds within the school. Our curriculum is continually evolving and adapting in the light of the needs of our children; giving us flexibility to respond to personal, local, national and global celebrations, issues and events.
We are proud to set high expectations of our curriculum and believe that it gives our children the skills, essential knowledge, confidence and self-belief to lead a happy and fulfilled life by encouraging them to aim high and work towards their goals in life, regardless of their starting points.
