Curriculum

At Shamblehurst Primary we are developing a curriculum to be proud of. Through our curriculum, we aim to achieve our school tag line of ‘Together We Can’. We aim to do this by enabling our children to understand their impact on the world through their actions and understand that by working together they can become educated citizens who achieve well in life beyond Shamblehurst.

Our curriculum gives children the opportunity to engage with critical audiences at a local, national and global level.

Alongside this curriculum, children are given opportunities to learn outside and show an awareness of their impact on the wider world. Children have opportunities to be mindful, to appreciate the great outdoors, whilst collaborating and problem solving alongside their peers.

We are a Bronze accredited school for Global neighbours and will be working towards our Silver and Gold awards over the next few years.
