Aims

The curriculum at Wharncliffe Side Primary aims to…

  • Fulfil and exceed all the requirements of the National Curriculum and the Sheffield Syllabus for Religious Education
  • Engender a positive attitude towards learning and acquire the foundations for lifelong learning.
  • Enable children to be creative and to develop their own thinking.
  • Inspire all children to learn and develop their knowledge, skills and understanding.
  • Enable children to recognise and utilise their own personal learning attributes.
  • Teach children the essential skills of literacy, numeracy and science and transfer these to other subjects.
  • Enable children to develop their knowledge and understanding of the world, including how their environment and society have changed over time.
  • Enable the children to understand how to keep themselves safe and healthy. 
  • Enable children to understand Britain’s cultural heritage.

As a result, 

  • Children make good progress in all subjects; meaning they know more, can do more and remember more.
  • Children are inclusive; have respect for themselves and others, and have high self-esteem, are able to live and work co-operatively with others.
  • Children are positive citizens in our school, community and wider society.
  • Children understand the importance of truth and fairness, so that they grow up committed to equal opportunities for all.

Nurturing confidence, nurturing potential, nurturing success.
