Curriculum Intent

Here at North Borough, we strongly believe in creating a safe and happy school community where our pupils are motivated to learn and develop as individuals.

We are a school with a constantly evolving curriculum, which responds to the needs of learners and their interests by enhancing learning experiences and raising awareness from the local area to national and global arenas. Thus, we will develop outward looking pupils who are able to engage in learning about themselves and have an understanding of the wider world and its complex cultures. It provides pupils with memorable experiences, in addition to diverse and rich opportunities from which children can learn and develop a range of transferable skills.

We are committed to providing a broad and balanced curriculum which ensures secure development and attainment. This allows children to achieve their personal best. Our curriculum structures nurture children's curiosity. Alongside this, children are also encouraged to explore and exceed their own limitations. 

The children will be exposed to the skills they need in order to achieve purposeful futures, doing something they are passionate about. This will be achieved by fostering ambition, well-being and self-worth. Children leave North Borough with a sense of belonging and are proud of their achievements and place in society.

We encourage each child to become a caring, confident and curious young person who has a passion for learning and achieving.

Our curriculum enables us to build strong relationships, celebrate diversity, encourage respect and build a sense of community. It provides and acknowledges success for all children, in all aspects of their development and it recognises, encourages and celebrates all types of talent. Within all subjects in the curriculum, teamwork and responsibility are an essential aspect that enable children to take on key roles within school, becoming involved in the community and celebrating local traditions, learning new skills and enabling them to take an active part in events throughout the year.

We provide a highly inclusive environment where children enjoy their education and are helped to achieve their full potential. Our cross curricular approach to education enables our children to make meaningful links with their learning which will then support their understanding of the wider world and its complex cultures. Those who are most able are challenged, encouraging them to expand their skills and knowledge through varied curriculum opportunities.  Those who find learning more difficult are encouraged and given targeted support to embed skills, to develop at their own pace and to learn in a style that best suits their individual needs.

Children leave North Borough Junior School with a sense of belonging and are proud that they have developed the confidence and skills needed to reach their fullest potential.
