ThE CURRICULUM AT ROWLEDGE
When planning the curriculum, Rowledge C of E Primary School has considered our children’s future and current needs in an ever-changing fast paced world where resilience is vital.
We believe that well-being, including all aspects of safeguarding, is paramount to success. Our aim is to support children through their learning journeys, building self-esteem, confidence and motivation, in order that children believe in themselves, aim high and experience success. Our learning opportunities are irresistible and inspiring to promote enquiry, curiosity, independence and an enthusiastic thirst for knowledge. Our values of kindness, honesty and respect are weaved through our curriculum, demonstrating Christianly distinct learning through compassion.
Every topic is designed to enthuse the children and capture their imagination, with ‘hooks’, and awe and wonder. Wow events and trips enrich topics and involve parents in children’s learning.
As part of the school's ongoing commitment to inclusion our curriculum is designed to meet the requirements of Equality Act 2010 & Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations 2024 and we work to meet the individual needs for those with disabilities or special educational needs and ensure the curriculum is accessible for all.
