Prepare pupils for the next stage of their education and for life in modern Britain (our mission statement)
We are proud of our curriculum and keep these factors in mind to create a vibrant learning community where all pupils are successful learners who are valued and able to thrive. As we work hard to achieve this, then the curriculum we offer will undoubtedly be outstanding.
Our curriculum is underpinned by our RESPECT values. As we prepare our children for life beyond school, we will play a critical role in helping to shape curious, resilient, determined, passionate young people who can face the challenges of the future with confidence. We will provide curriculum opportunities that encourage pupils to develop a wider set of skills and qualities such as leadership, communication, empathy and perseverance, which are vital for each pupil’s successful learning. Learning at our school will contribute to cultural, physical, spiritual, moral and social well-being and play a part in extending each child’s understanding of British values.
When preparing pupils for the next stage in their education and for life in modern Britain we reference the Top 10 Skills of the Future, taken from the World Economic Forum report 2025. These skills include:
Analytical thinking and innovation
Active learning and learning strategies
Complex problem-solving
Critical thinking and analysis
Creativity, originality and initiative
Leadership and social influence
Technology use, monitoring and control
Technology design and programming
Resilience, stress tolerance and flexibility

These life skills are born through carefully planned activities which enrich school life and learning, giving pupils different perspectives, personal successes, independence, inspiration and experiences, both big and small.
