Newsham Primary School Curriculum
Everything that we do at Newsham Primary School has our values of Respectful, Responsible and Ready at it's core. This is because it is ‘The Newsham Way'.
Our curriculum reflects the fantastic community of Newsham. We aim to engage with the people in the town, celebrate it’s rich history, and take part in what is going on. We also want to help shape the positive future of the area. Our curriculum is designed so that there are no barriers to learning for pupils from all backgrounds or abilities and signposts support for those who need it. We celebrate and welcome the diversity of those in our community and want it to enrich the lives of those we serve.
We have a reading rich curriculum which allows learners to acquire knowledge, behaviours and skills that develop cultural awareness, proficiency and competence; giving them every opportunity to be successful in society, their career and the world of work. This cultural capital development will be seen in learning across the school. An example of this is our STEM work, which is so important for the future of our town. We are currently working towards ‘Outreach’ status for a Primary Science Quality Mark.
Enrichment experiences are designed to build self-esteem, promote independence and teamwork. They are available to all learners. We also want to be ambitious about spreading the experiences we offer and the influence we have beyond the local area.
Our curriculum recognises all members of our school community are learning together and are on ‘Our Journey to Excellence’.
