Lawn Primary School strives to be an inclusive community where children experience Aspiration, Adventure, Knowledge and Smiles together. We value each child as an individual with a unique potential for learning.
Their natural curiosity is fostered through a creative and ambitious curriculum that excites and challenges; and enables all to be independent, resilient and successful learners. Our curriculum nurtures and prepares children educationally, socially, morally and physically for their continuing learning journey. Supported by a culture of equality and aspiration, we aim to remove disadvantage so that every child believes in themselves and can thrive.
Through the curriculum children develop an understanding of citizenship and are empowered to make valuable contributions locally and globally.
Our curriculum is designed to develop inquisitive thinkers who develop a love of life-long learning.
We understand that the curriculum, both within taught lessons and beyond them, should create an environment where questioning, academic risk-taking, divergent thinking, and the freedom to learn from mistakes are all encouraged.
Our intent is that our curriculum will develop in our children the qualities of responsibility and independence, and a sense that learning can excite and strengthen throughout your whole life.
Curriculum design is viewed by Senior Leaders, Governors and Teachers as an exciting, continuous and fluid process which takes into consideration the needs, characteristics and interests of our children; their prior learning and experiences; and the statutory curriculum (EYFS Statutory Framework and the NC). It is constantly evolving to ensure local, national, and global contexts are topical; that approaches to our ever changing and often unknown world and technologies are embraced; and current educational research and best practice informs pedagogy.
Our curriculum is designed around a series of principles that reflect our schools vision and values, pedagogical approaches and needs, which clarify the vision of the curriculum.
