Key Stage 1 Curriculum

The Key Stage 1 curriculum consists of the core subjects of maths and English which are taught every day. The children are also taught daily phonics within small groups. The other subjects are science (also a core subject), computing, history, geography, art, design & technology (D&T), physical education (PE), religious education (RE), modern foreign languages (Spanish), music and personal, social and health education (PSHE). 

Our curriculum is carefully planned and sequenced to ensure that new knowledge and skills build upon previous learning, creating a framework rich in what we call "sticky knowledge"—information that students will retain for years to come.

 As children progress through KS1, we focus on nurturing their independence and foster a sense of responsibility for their own learning. Our goal is to encourage self-motivation and help them become self-driven learners. We empower them to take ownership of their educational journey, cultivating skills that will benefit them both academically and personally. We aim to instil a love of learning that extends beyond Key Stage 1 and into Key Stage 2.
