Curriculum Subjects

The role of the curriculum is to shape our children’s futures. We want our students to be changed by our curriculum: they need to be able to understand time and place and their identity and role in contributing to the local, national and global communities.

At Little Parndon, our vision and values drive our curriculum. We believe wholeheartedly in shaping children’s future through education. The Little Parndon student is:

Confident. They know why learning is important. They know what helps them to learn. They know their strengths and areas that need further development. They enjoy learning. They know they are in control of their own journey but also how to live and work well with the rest of us, each on our own journey. They have respect for everyone and everything. They know that we are not all the same and therefore do not all need the same. We all have a place in a world shared with each other and with nature. Little Parndon students understand the responsibility this brings.

In order to achieve this, every young person, whilst at little Parndon, will be educated in and be part of a community which daily promotes its values and vision. We want all of our students to be educated:

 

  • In knowledge, skills and wisdom
  • To have high aspirations and be hopeful
  • To understand how to live well within a community
  • To treat everyone with dignity and respect

 

Underpinning this are the core values of Respect, Responsibility and Resilience, as well as our drivers of Autonomy, Mastery and Purpose.

Therefore, we have a coherent rationale and understanding about what we teach and when and why we teach it, ensuring that there is:

 

  • An inclusive and challenging curriculum designed to inspire curiosity and build subject mastery, including the skills of literacy, numeracy and oracy.
  • A progressive and sequential curriculum designed to develop a depth of knowledge. The integrity of each subject is respected with key vocabulary being explicitly taught.
  • An interwoven, rich curriculum that is designed to support students’ retention and retrieval of knowledge

 

Subject specific curriculum overviews can be found against each subject on the left-hand side of the page.
