Not only do we expect all of our children to develop as confident writers, readers and mathematicians, we also aim to broaden their knowledge of key concepts in Science, the Humanities, Art and culture. We believe this knowledge should be empowering knowledge, knowledge that draws on 'the best that has been thought and said.' Importantly, we also ensure that this knowledge is also shaped and applied to the needs of the present and the future so that our pupils can begin shaping the world as it should be.
