CANON BURROWS CE PRIMARY SCHOOL

NATIONAL CURRICULUM OVERVIEW

2014-2015

At Canon Burrows we aim to provide all of our children with a broad and balanced curriculum experience, preparing for life in Modern Britain.

We have adopted the 'Learning Challenge' curriculum. Each topic has a big question which is broken down into smaller learning challenges. The main questions are driven by History, Geography or Science and these are enhanced by art, music and design technology.

Some subjects are taught separate from the topic, these are Religious Education, Physical Education, Personal and Social Health Education, Music and Computing.

The statutory primary national curriculum (2014) can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-curriculum-in-england-primary-curriculum .
