Curriculum

Underpinned by our theologically-rooted Christian vision of ‘A family of learner’s expecting the best’ and Bible verse ‘May we have life to the full’, we aim to ensure our curriculum encourages every child to flourish. At Radford Semele C of E Primary School, we foster a love of learning, make lasting memories and take pride in achieving educational excellence. Through an exciting, engaging and stimulating curriculum, our children become confident, resilient learners who are active members of the community and care for other people and the world around them. Take a look at our 'Curriculum Intent' document below to find out more about the aims of our curriculum.

Here, at Radford Semele, we learn many of our foundation subjects through curriculum themes each term, which you can see mapped out in the overview below.

Each term, we make links between our curriculum and our school values. Each theme is then concluded with a values reflection using the window, mirror, door approach to identify what the children have learnt (looking out), what it means to them (looking in) and how it will impact them in the future (looking ahead).

For more detail about what the children will learn in each subject, please take a look at our 'Curriculum Policy' and refer to the curriculum webpages below and knowledge organisers for each subject. 

At Radford Semele C of E Primary School, all class teachers, with support from the SENCo, are responsible for providing a curriculum that is suitable for all pupils in the class, including those with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND). We have high expectations for all pupils and are committed to ensuring our curriculum complies with the Equality Act 2010 and the Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations 2014.  Additional information on this can be found in our Special Education Needs Information Report.
