Curriculum
At Ladygrove Park Primary School, we want to inspire our children to succeed and excel, by growing and equipping every single child with the knowledge, confidence, skills and empathy that will allow them to have rich and fulfilled lives. We are proud to provide our children with an enquiry curriculum, which is focused on engagement, enjoyment, knowledge, skills and understanding. Our curriculum intends to: foster their curiosity; encourage children to ask probing questions; support them to be brave in finding solutions so that they become the Thinkers, Collaborators and Role Models of the future.
Our curriculum is the road map for our pursuit of knowledge, understanding and skills. Our intent is that everything we teach is well-thought-out, ambitious and intellectually challenging. To be literate and numerate is a form of power; we empower our children by developing their ability: to read with deep understanding, to speak clearly and confidently, and to write expressively and with flair; to become fluent in the fundamentals of number, to reason mathematically, and to solve problems by applying their mathematical understanding. Through our curriculum, pupils develop their ability to read, write, speak, comprehend, debate, calculate, reason, problem-solve, so that they can seize the opportunities of a rich, lifelong education.
Across the different areas of our curriculum, we introduce children to the fascinating complexities of the world around them. We explore, for example, the science, the history, the humanity behind the questions such as: What do artists do? How can science help the vulnerable? How are lives saved? Why do we live here? How can we show what we believe in? Where does our food really come from? What is underneath our feet? Who stood here before us? and we use our knowledge to ask even more probing questions.
