Intent | Implementation | Impact

Intent

At Worle Village Primary School, our curriculum is ambitious, inclusive and designed to meet the needs of all learners. It is rooted in the requirements of the National Curriculum while being shaped by children’s interests, experiences and questions.

We aim to develop curious, confident learners who enjoy learning, think deeply and make meaningful connections across subjects. Our curriculum supports pupils’ academic achievement, personal development and wellbeing, while nurturing a strong sense of identity and belonging within their community and the wider world.

As a Learning Without Limits school, we believe every child can succeed. We place high value on pupil voice, cultural understanding and first-hand experiences, ensuring learning is relevant, engaging and purposeful.

Implementation

The curriculum is carefully sequenced and delivered through a two-year rolling programme, allowing mixed-age year groups to work collaboratively while ensuring full coverage of the National Curriculum. This approach supports progression, continuity and inclusive practice.

Learning is enriched through:

• Cross-curricular, engaging topics

• Planned enrichment and ‘WOW’ days

• First-hand experiences that deepen understanding

• Opportunities for children to explore, question and reflect

Recent curriculum experiences include woodland exploration, historical immersion days, visits from people representing the past, hands-on archaeology, creative projects linked to global cultures, scientific investigation, and whole-school commemorative events such as VE Day.

Pupils are actively involved in shaping the curriculum. At the end of each term, children contribute ideas, questions and themes they would like to explore. Teachers use this pupil voice to inform future planning, carefully weaving children’s interests into a well-structured curriculum to maintain rigour and progression.

We hold Heritage Schools status, reflecting our commitment to high-quality history teaching that enables pupils to understand the past locally, nationally and globally. This supports children in developing a sense of identity and understanding of their place in the world.

We are also embedding philosophy within the curriculum, supporting pupils to develop critical thinking, reasoning and respectful discussion. This approach promotes collaboration, acceptance of different viewpoints and deeper exploration of ideas.

Teaching is inclusive and responsive, with reasonable adjustments and support in place to ensure all pupils, including those with SEND, can access the curriculum and achieve well.
