Curriculum Information
Dear Parents,
Attached is our curriculum map for the year. We would like to remind you that the curriculum maps are just an outline of what we intend to do. As innovative teachers, who believe in working to the children’s interests and needs, we may sometimes change planning or units. You will be updated of this half termly with our half term parent curriculum letters. There is a greater focus this year in developing their character, which we know many of you will agree is very important for transitioning into high school. The curriculum map has been carefully thought out and planned, and we will use this as a working and developing document.
