Curriculum

Bringing Learning to Life

The location of our school is in a National Park and our very own Fletcher’s Field provides a unique foundation upon which to build our curriculum and bring learning to life.

Here at Hawkshead, outdoor learning supports our vision and values and enriches our curriculum offer. Opportunities and experiences in Fletcher’s Field enhance national curriculum subjects in so many ways. Some examples include: coppicing and charcoal making in history, making bird boxes and frames to support garden peas in DT and looking after biodiversity in science. It also provides an environment that supports pupils well-being, a sense of awe and wonder and an appreciation and understanding of the natural world.

The core curriculum of the school comprises of the Early Years Foundation Stage and the National Curriculum for Key Stages 1 and 2, together with Religious Education and Relationships, Sex and Health Education. Our curriculum has been planned and sequenced in a way that builds knowledge and skills progressively over time. We work towards age related expectations and adapt our teaching to support pupils moving through the demands of a basic, advancing and deep cognitive domain. During lessons, links are made to previous learning and to other subject areas. Retrieval of knowledge is practised within and throughout each unit of work.

As a school we also provide experiences and activities that deepen and widen children’s cultural, aesthetic and intellectual development. We are ambitious for all our children and believe we provide one of the most fertile learning environments that shape and form our children’s ambitions and dreams combined with the skills, knowledge and attitudes they need to succeed.
