St Columba C of E Curriculum Intent 

Welcome to St Columba C of E Primary School, where we embrace the holistic development of every child, fostering an inclusive and diverse learning environment. Our curriculum is designed to educate the whole child, nurturing their academic, social, emotional, and physical well-being.

We believe that every child brings their unique experiences, and we celebrate the richness of diversity within our community.

Through a combination of innovative teaching methods, personalised learning experiences, and a wide range of extracurricular activities, we strive to empower children to reach their full potential. Our dedicated teachers and support staff work collaboratively with children, families, and the community to create a nurturing and supportive environment where every child can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

All learners in our schools will experience a curriculum that embodies the St Columba C of E Primary School values :  

Love  

• Our ambitious curriculum is designed to cultivate a love for learning by fostering curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking skills in every child.
• Through meaningful connections, compassionate interactions, and a commitment to understanding and empathy, we aim to instill in the children a deep sense of care and appreciation for themselves, their peers, and the world around them.

Respect  

• Respect is more than just a word; it's a core value that shapes every aspect of our curriculum.   
• We believe that fostering respect is essential for creating a safe, inclusive, and harmonious learning environment where all children can thrive.    
• Our commitment to respect extends beyond the classroom, shaping the culture of our school.

Hope  

• We encourage students to dream big and pursue their passions with enthusiasm and determination.   
• We encourage exploration and experimentation, fostering a sense of curiosity and wonder about the possibilities of the world around them.
