Curriculum
At St Winifred’s we are committed to ensuring high quality of education through a broad and balanced curriculum, in order to enable all our pupils to achieve their full potential. We aim to provide a safe, happy and stimulating environment for all our pupils so that learning can take place in a relaxed and secure atmosphere.
We recognise that ensuring a high quality of education at St Winifreds’ is the responsibility of the whole school community : teachers, headteacher, governors, and support staff and parents. We therefore are committed to fully involving all of these members of our community.
We have a wide range of structures in place to ensure that both teaching and learning are effective in our schools ( policies and schemes etc..) . These structures are documented and issued to each member of the school community as appropriate, and are regularly reviewed .
As a school we recognise the importance of the teaching of literacy and numeracy in order to ensure full access to all other areas of learning . Children of all abilities receive high levels of support. We devote a significant percentage of teaching time to these areas, which reflects our very strong commitment to ensuring that all our children leave, having attained high levels of achievement in basic skills. We have a separate statement which outlines our principles and practise in these areas.
We have agreed on the common aims and principles which form the basis of all teaching and learning in our school.
