Our Curriculum

At All Saints Academy we provide an exciting and engaging curriculum to develop life long learners.

Intent (Our vision for the curriculum)

Our curriculum aims to allow all children to excel academically as well as develop socially, emotionally and spiritually. We have high expectations for all of our children. We aim to provide a curriculum that is personalised, broad and thematic, equipping pupils for life and fostering a love of life-long learning. We provide opportunities that allow children to acquire sequential knowledge, understanding, vocabulary and skills. These knowledge and skills are based on prior learning and are secured through application over time. Applying this learning in different contexts ensures children develop understanding (change in long term memory), cultural capital and mastery. Through our curriculum we celebrate the diversity of our community, and the communities within the UK. In line with our duties under the Equality Act 2010 and the Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations 2014, this includes a range of underrepresented and protected groups including gender, sexual orientation, religion/belief, disability, age and race.
