Curriculum Intent

Making Learning Irresistible

We strive to do an excellent job in teaching your child on a daily basis. To help us do this, we think carefully about the topics we choose to ensure that we can hook children in and keep them motivated to learn!

At Cedar, we have a set of attributes that we want all children to have master as they move through the school with us. They are for the pupils to be:

Considerate (kind, respectful of others, thoughtful, empathetic and tolerant)

Enthusiastic (motivated, excited to learn, willing to try, positive and curious)

Determined (know they can do it, be a problem solver, be resourceful and show ambition)

Assured (happy to be in school, confident, brave, not over reliant on adults and willing to take risks)

Resilient (not willing to give up, wanting to have another go, overcoming barrier and setbacks)

We have carefully designed and implemented our curriculum to ensure it is broad, balanced and suits the needs and interests of our children.

Religious Education

We use the Kapow Primary RE programme as our scheme of work. Through this, children explore the beliefs and practices of the world’s major religions by engaging with artefacts, places of worship, core values and festivals. Our aim is to foster an understanding of rights and responsibilities, promote tolerance and empathy and help children appreciate the richness that diversity brings to our communities. In accordance with the Education Act, parents/carers have the right to withdraw their child from RE and Collective Worship. If you wish to do so, please contact the Headteacher.
