Curriculum Overview
As part of our trust-wide strategy, we have structured our curriculum so that our children will know, understand and remember more.
Working closely together, the schools that make up Warrington Primary Academy Trust have painstakingly created detailed curriculum for every academic subject.
These are built in a way that will make sure that each child develops knowledge that is underpinned with a variety of core skills and key concepts, and builds on prior learning.
The approach means that children are better able to remember, apply and deepen their understanding of their learning.
Children experience a wide range of subjects and activities that allow them to explore different units of work and learning styles in detail.
Our Curriculum covers the National Curriculum objectives and builds on knowledge taught at previous stages.
Details of our School Curriculum can be found on this page and on the subject pages accessed from the curriculum menu on the website. If you have any questions, please contact the school office.

Medium Term Plans
Each of our foundation subjects including Science have medium term plans which outline the key learning that will take place and show clear progressions in knowledge and vocabulary. Knowledge organisers are used alongside the medium term plans. These will be used to support children's retention of key facts, knowledge and vocabulary. They will be used in school but could also be used to support homework tasks. Children are encouraged to refer to these for the duration of a unit of work as well as for retrieval purposes.
Learning Overviews
At the start of every half-term we publish our Learning Overviews (Subject Planning) for each year group.
