Curriculum

Statement of Intent

At Eyrescroft Primary School we are continuing to develop a broad and balanced curriculum content meeting the emotional and educational needs of each individual child.

The EYFS Framework and the National Curriculum provide the structure for determining the main learning expectations and ensuring the progressive acquisition of knowledge and skills, all within a well considered and planned process.

We priorise the foundational knowledge and skills children need, including speaking, listening, early reading, writing and maths, as this is paramount in allowing effective access to the broader curriculum.

The curriculum across the whole school is led by quality texts where the development of reading/speaking/listening plays a major role. 

At Eyrescroft the curriculum design enables children to engage in a range of learning opportunities, building on prior knowledge and skills and creating meaningful links with real life experiences. Our aim is to develop children who are happy, confident, resilient and successful in the next stage of their learning journey.

How we keep parents/carers informed:

As well as being able to find key information relating to our curriculum on our website, we also produce half termly curriculum information sheets for each year group which are shared on our website. Our curriculum information sheets provide key information about the topics including the key texts.

Please see the tabs on the left hand side to view each year groups curriculum information sheets.
