CURRICULUM STATEMENT
At Christ the King we are aiming for an ambitious curriculum that provides high quality learning experiences. Our thoughtfully crafted curriculum is designed to provide a broad and balanced education that meets the needs of all pupils and gives them the skills, knowledge and understanding to prepare them for their future lives. Our approach to learning is rooted in our mission statement ‘God’s kingdom we will build for our lives to be fulfilled’ and provides experiences and opportunities that enrich and enhance the spiritual and developmental needs of our all of our pupils.
We are committed to meeting the requirements of the primary National Curriculum underpinned by our Gospel Virtues and British Values.
Intent
At Christ the King we want our children to experience:
Implementation
Our curriculum will be implemented with our intentions as the drivers behind our actions. Our whole school team approach strengthens our mission, ethos and vision as we work together to reflect upon our curriculum and share outcomes driving forward the next steps. We do not confuse coverage with progress when assessing and monitoring. Learning is measured through careful analysis of application of skills across the curriculum.
Impact
We are all on a learning journey together and because of this, our staff continually reflect on the impact of our teaching and curriculum through assessments, surveys (including parent and pupil voice), discussions, learning walks and a range of monitoring. Governors work alongside the school leadership team to monitor and evaluate how the intent and implementation of the curriculum is reflected in the teaching and learning at Christ the King. If we need to adapt our curriculum, we will, because the most important thing is that our pupils are challenged, prepared and happy learners.
