Curriculum Aims
Through our broad and rich curriculum, we aim to enable every child to love learning and develop excellent knowledge and skills, enriched by a secure sense of self-worth and deep moral purpose. We believe it is our collective responsibility to enable and encourage every unique child to flourish in body, mind and spirit; gaining wisdom and knowledge and developing gifts and talents. We aim to nurture skills and talents to enable every individual to achieve, flourish and make a positive difference as active citizens in today’s modern, multi-cultural world.
