Curriculum
The National Curriculum sets out what children should be taught. Attainment targets set out the expected standards of pupils' performance and schools may choose how they organise their school curriculum to cover the programmes of study from Year 1 to Year 6. Children in Nursery and Reception follow the Early Years Foundation Stage. In addition, pupils in KS1 follow the Letters and Sounds phonics scheme.
The Curriculum was revised by the Government in September 2013.
A guide for parents can be found here.
At Asterdale, we provide all pupils with a curriculum which is broad, balanced and stimulates learning. We aim to develop the skills and knowledge that help our children grow in confidence and maturity, enabling them to pursue academic, social and cultural activities.
The curriculum consists of programmes of study and comprises three core subjects - English, Maths and Science and foundation subjects (History, Geography, Design and Technology, Art, Music, Physical Education (PE), Computing, Religious Education (RE) and a Modern Foreign Language (French).
Please do have a look through each of the year group 'doors' on the home page for curriculum information.
