The Winnersh Primary School Curriculum

Winnersh Primary School is committed to meeting the requirements of the National Curriculum for Primary Schools. The government site describing the curriculum can be found here.

We want our curriculum to inspire, empower, engage and excite everyone in our school community.  Our curriculum will have purpose and meaning because we will focus on:

• providing children with first-hand learning experiences
• working as part of a team
• thinking creatively and critically
• investigating, enquiring and explaining
• opening children’s eyes to the ever-changing world around them

• confident to share their point of view
• happy to be independent
• curious about the world
• enthusiastic performers of the arts
• positive representatives of the school
• able to use technology as a tool for life
• ready for secondary school
