Orchard Way Primary School

Intent

Our curriculum is designed to provide a broad and balanced education that is ambitious and meets the needs of all children. The early learning areas of social and personal learning, health and physical learning, and language and communication prepares students for adulthood. Our children are taught to be curious, ask questions and are encouraged to make a meaningful contribution throughout their lives for the good of us all.

The curriculum ensures that academic success, creativity and problem solving, reliability, responsibility and resilience, as well as physical development, well-being and mental health are key elements that support the development of the whole child, promoting a positive attitude to learning. The curriculum celebrates the diversity and utilises the skills, knowledge and cultural wealth of the community while supporting the children’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, ensuring that children are well prepared for life in modern Britain.

Our curriculum is nurturing and aims to promote the all-round development of our children. In addition, it fosters happiness and nurtures their well-being, helping them lead an independent life and integrate into the community.
