Our curriculum is designed to enable children to engage fully with the characteristics of effective learning:
Playing and exploring
- Children investigate and experience things, and ‘have a go’.
- Children who actively participate in their own play develop a larger store of information and experiences to draw on which positively supports their learning
Active learning
- Children concentrate and keep on trying if they encounter difficulties.
- They are proud of their own achievements.
- For children to develop into self-regulating, lifelong learners they are required to take ownership, accept challenges and learn persistence.
Creating and thinking critically
- Children develop their own ideas and make links between these ideas.
- They think flexibly and rationally, drawing on previous experiences which help them to solve problems and reach conclusions.
