Curriculum Policy

 The curriculum at Blackfell Primary School is built on our commitment to providing a high-quality, inclusive education that enables every child to “Be the Best You Can Be.” Our curriculum policy sets out the principles, structures and expectations that guide teaching and learning across the school, ensuring a coherent, ambitious and well-sequenced offer for all pupils.

We recognise that children learn best when they feel safe, valued and engaged, and when the curriculum reflects both their needs and the diverse community we serve. Our curriculum aims to secure strong progress for every pupil, regardless of background, starting point or additional need, by providing clear progression in knowledge, skills and vocabulary across all subjects. Through high-quality teaching, purposeful enrichment and meaningful use of technology, we strive to equip our pupils with the knowledge and personal qualities they need to succeed now and in the future.

This policy sets out the intent, implementation and impact of our curriculum, describing how we design learning, support staff in delivering it and evaluate its effectiveness. It should be read alongside subject-specific documentation, teaching and learning guidance, and other statutory policies that contribute to the overall educational offer at Blackfell Primary School.
