Curriculum Vision

Our school  serves children and young people to help them grow into fulfilled and valued citizens.

At Surrey Street Primary School, we aim to produce well-rounded individuals through an aspirational and motivational curriculum, which reflects the individuality and diversity of the children in our school. We give high priority to teaching the fundamentals of reading, writing and Maths,  to ensure that all pupils acquire the basic skills for learning and for life. These skills are used and practised across all subjects.  We give children opportunities to work on their own, in pairs and in groups and value the importance of talk as a tool for learning and invest time in this.

The curriculum at Surrey Street provides children with a broad wealth of immersive experiences through WOW days, hands-on activities, trips, visitors to the school and outdoor learning. We encourage children to become emotionally intelligent, independent learners who make links between their experiences in school and their hopes and dreams for the future, including their life beyond school.

Our school vision, ‘Learning for Life’, is central to our curriculum and as such this embodies a skills-based approach in which children explore topics, build resilience and develop problem solving strategies.  ‘Learning for life’ is threaded into our curriculum by the following, relevant themes which we believe are vital for the pupils in our school:
