Our Curriculum

Intent

At Kintbury St Mary’s Primary, we recognise that every pupil is an individual; each with their own unique blend of skills and talents. We aim to support every child to develop a love of life and learning by providing a curriculum which provides the knowledge, skills, challenge and support needed to enable our children to reach their full potential. Under the umbrella of our Christian vision statement and our core school values, we aim to instil kindness, tolerance and an ability to keep ourselves and others safe in an ever changing, modern world.

Implementation

At Kintbury St Mary’s, national curriculum lessons are taught discretely to ensure our children develop the knowledge and skills they need to be able to commit their learning to long-term memory. Our classroom learning is enhanced by quality texts and engaging experiences which bring learning to life. We make use of our beautiful school grounds, our local area and are judicious in our financial planning to ensure every child has access to our wider curriculum opportunities. This forms our pupil curriculum pledge.
