Curriculum
At Brentfield Primary School, we are BRAVE:
We Belong,
We are Responsible,
We are Aspirational,
We Value Diversity,
We are Empowered.
Through our BRAVE values, we provide a holistic education that nurtures and prepares our children for the opportunities and challenges of an unknown, yet exciting future. We are committed to safeguarding our children, enabling them to become confident, well-rounded individuals who are able to live safe, healthy and fulfilling lives.
Our curriculum is carefully planned, implemented creatively and assessed for its real-world impact. Our specially designed and bespoke learning spaces enable us to offer a curriculum that ignites curiosity, reveals the unknown and supports our children to develop the skills and knowledge they need to become creators of their own destiny.
The design and delivery of the curriculum is driven by cognitive science. Three main principles that underpin teaching and learning at Brentfield are:
-
Learning is most effective when broken down into small steps;
-
Recall and retention of knowledge is improved through frequent and systematic consolidation of learning;
-
Pupil understanding is continuously assessed and re-addressed through responsive teaching.
At Brentfield Primary School, we give our children time; time to digest, time to apply and time to embed the knowledge and skills that they are learning in their classroom. The curriculum is interactive and intends to provide our children with the tools to become champions for tomorrow.
