Our Curriculum

Welcome to the Catchgate Curriculum! 

We have spent careful time planning to ensure that this ambitious curriculum meets not only the basic requirements of the curriculum but considers the needs of our pupils in our school, our local area and beyond. This ensures that our British Values are considered when teaching each lesson. 

 

We have three golden threads running through our curriculum, these are; culture and beliefs, crime and punishment, exploration and invasion.

Each topic is listed below - please have a look to see what each year group is doing within the topics and how they all link. If you look closely, you should also see the progression of skills across the year groups too! 

At Catchgate Primary School, all aspects of our curriculum are accessible to all children, irrespective of their ethnic background, gender, disability, religious or linguistic background. We strive hard to meet the needs of those pupils with special educational needs, those with disabilities, those who are more able, those with special gifts and talents and the children who are learning English as an additional language. We provide a rich, challenging curriculum, which stretches all of our children. Staff are aware of children who have exceptional talents and gifts and monitor or track their progress carefully to ensure their academic potential or talent is continually developed.
