Our Curriculum

Overview

The Curriculum is all the planned activities that the school organises in order to promote learning, personal growth and development. It includes not only the formal requirements of the National Curriculum, but also the range of additional opportunities that the school organises in order to enrich the experiences of our children. This includes an ever growing range of additional opportunities available to our children across all year groups.

Our Curriculum also includes the ‘hidden curriculum’, or what our children learn from the way they are treated and expected to behave. Ebchester CE Primary School aims to teach children how to grow into positive, responsible people, who can work and co-operate with others while developing knowledge and skills, so that they achieve all that they can.

Curriculum Aims

At Ebchester CE Primary School, we believe that everyone is unique and valued by God. We will create a nurturing, challenging and empowering community rooted in a sense of compassion, friendship and respect. We aspire to provide an outstanding education, underpinned by Christian values, to create well-rounded learners, resilient individuals and responsible citizens who are prepared for every adventure.
