The Priory Curriculum

The Priory curriculum provides the best possible environment for our children to learn and develop, as well as to cultivate a sense of wonder, empathy and understanding of the world around them. 

Our curriculum is designed to help us bring the best out of our children, ensuring that they maximise their potential as fully as possible for the next stage of their lives.
Our curriculum encourages children to be:
  • Curious
  • Creative
  • Knowledgeable
  • Collaborative
  • Positive
  • Reflective
  • Adventurous

Comprehensive Educational Approach

Priory PSHE lessons ensure that our children understand themselves, their place in the world, and how to make the world a better place. We aim to build resilience in our children and encourage a growth mindset. Alongside this, the Priory curriculum is focused on developing the children’s knowledge and skills across all of the English National Curriculum subjects. We strive to prepare children for their next stage of learning and provide them with opportunities to develop life skills, focusing on their individual strengths and areas for development.

Building Cultural Capital and Enhancing Literacy

We aim to provide children with the cultural capital they need to succeed in life through excursions, opportunities for music – both performing and appreciation, sports competitions, and by welcoming visitors to school. We place a high priority on reading in our curriculum, as we believe the ability to read and understand opens up learning for all our children. Equally, the development of children’s vocabulary is seen as a vital tool in learning and understanding the whole curriculum.
