Entering Key Stage One, the pupils are encouraged to think for themselves and manage the school day independently with courtesy and respect. The children engage in an exciting and inspiring curriculum following the National Curriculum, which aims to encourage focus, good study skills and a strong sense of achievement as well as an understanding of the wider world. Core activities are taught with a cross-curricular approach; capturing interest and a passion for learning.
