Curriculum intent

 

Our Wellington curriculum is broad, balanced and ambitious. It reflects traditional values and subjects with due emphasis on cognitive learning and innovation. The school’s curriculum promotes the Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural (SMSC) and physical development of pupils at the school and of our local and global society. It aims to prepare pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities and expectations of later life.

Speaking, communication and reading lie at the heart of our curriculum. ensuring our pupils become confident and curious learners throughout their academic studies and into their adult enriched lives. We aim for them to leave Wellington with the following:   

  • Secure knowledge and skills;
  • be reliable, take responsibility and show resilience;
  • an ability to build and maintain relationships;
  • an ability to work collaboratively in a team and to be self-directed learners
