Curriculum Intent

Our statement of intent for our whole school curriculum is to ensure our pupils develop the necessary skills, knowledge and attitude to achieve fulfilling lives.  The Primary and Secondary Departments continue our pupils' school journey from EYFS towards achieving our curriculum intent. 

As an outstanding specialist school we have an outreach programme which supports children with SEND in the wider community to develop the skills, knowledge and attitudes to live fulfilled lives. 

At Red Marsh School we believe that providing the appropriate curriculum for each learner is an essential part of fulfilling the school’s purpose, values and curriculum intent.

We are proud that all our pupils are involved in all aspects of our broad, balanced and stimulating curriculum personalised to meet individual need.  

Content

Our primary curriculum is designed to ensure we meet the individual needs of every child within the department. All our children have personalised targets.  These targets ensure every child is working towards their Education Health and Care Plan outcomes and the knowledge and skills identified in  our primary curriculum. 

In the primary department the curriculum builds upon the work of the EYFS department.  The curriculum teaches learners essential 'Learn to Learn' knowledge and skills and knowledge and skills identified in our sequenced curriculum.  Knowledge and skills are taught through a creative curriculum brought together, where possible, to form a topic. The primary curriculum ensures learners access their curriculum entitlement of the core and foundation subjects as identified in the National Curriculum, alongside Religious Education and Personal, Social, and Health Education, as a core curriculum area. All areas of the primary curriculum are sequenced to meet the developmental stage of every child.    

Across the primary phase learners remain with their class team comprising of a specialist teacher and dedicated support staff. Learners follow timetables personalised to meet their needs.  

Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural development, including the promotion of British Values are at the heart of our curriculum. 

Specialist teachers and dedicated support staff ensure high quality teaching and learning experiences for all children.  

Children requiring additional support to meet their needs have personalised interventions, for example, sensory diet interventions. Occupational Therapy, Speech and Language and Physiotherapy programmes are delivered across the curriculum.
