Our curriculum is based upon the National Curriculum and designed around topics to interest and motivate children. Our aim is for children to become independent learners, building on skills and knowledge throughout their time at WPS so they are equipped for the next stage in their educational journey. Our extensive outdoor environment is used to engage learning across the curriculum as well as promoting physical activity and problem solving skills.

Other important foci are positive, growth mindset, helping children to become self-confident individuals and citizenship, helping children to become responsible citizens within our community.

The Primary National Curriculum 2014 is divided into 11 subjects: English, Maths, Science, Art & Design, Computing, Design & Technology, Geography, History, Languages, Music, Physical Education. We also teach Personal, Social, Citizenship & Health Education (PSHE) as well as Religious Education and Relationships & Sex Education.

We follow a topic-based curriculum plan that is reviewed annually to ensure it is responsive to our pupils’ needs and interests.

Each lower school year is made up of two, mixed-ability classes. Each upper school year is made up of three, mixed-ability classes. Year group teachers plan together to make learning relevant and engaging whilst adapting to learning to meet the individual needs of pupils their class.
