These areas form the foundation of all learning that takes place in school.
Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2
As children move from Reception to Year 1 and until they leave us at the end of Year 6 we follow the National Curriculum. The National Curriculum is divided into core subjects and foundation Subjects.
The core subjects are:
- English
- Maths
- Science
The foundation subjects are;
- Computing
- Art
- History
- Geography
- Design and Technology
- PE
- Music
We also teach French, Personal Social, Health and Citizenship Education and R.E.
in Year 6 we deliver the Archbishop of York Youth Trust Leadership Award. The award is an exciting and interactive programme where pupils learn about key leadership skills, grow in character and have practical opportunities to volunteer and help others in their community. It encourages our young people to be the change they want to see.
