We Learn. We Grow. We Shine.
Our curriculum is designed to help every child develop academically, socially and personally. Through rich experiences, high-quality teaching and our SHINE values, we nurture confident learners who are ready to make a positive contribution to their community and the wider world.
Our Curriculum
At The Avenue, we believe every child deserves a curriculum that is ambitious, engaging and carefully designed to help them succeed both now and in the future.
We have designed a curriculum that reflects the needs of our children and community whilst ensuring full coverage of the National Curriculum. Subjects are taught discretely so that knowledge and skills are developed progressively over time, with meaningful links made where they enhance learning.
Through our curriculum, children develop:
- Strong communication and language skills
- Secure mathematical and scientific understanding
- Creativity and imagination
- Technological confidence
- Physical health and wellbeing
- Social and emotional resilience
- Moral, spiritual and cultural understanding
Our curriculum is continually reviewed and refined by staff and governors to ensure it remains relevant, ambitious and responsive to the needs of our pupils.
Early Years Foundation Stage
Children begin their learning journey in our Early Years Foundation Stage, where learning is centred around the EYFS Framework and its seven areas of learning.
The three prime areas are:
- Communication and Language
- Physical Development
- Personal, Social and Emotional Development
These provide the foundations for success and help children develop confidence, curiosity and a love of learning.
The four specific areas are:
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Understanding the World
- Expressive Arts and Design
Through high-quality interactions, purposeful play, exploration and carefully planned learning experiences, children develop the knowledge, skills and independence they need to thrive throughout their time at The Avenue and beyond.
