Roding’s Curriculum Rationale
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
Nelson Mandela 2003
Roding Primary School and Nursery with provision for deaf children is a welcoming school where everyone is ‘Free To Achieve’ The dedicated staff, amazing group of children and committed governors work hard to support strengths, improve weaknesses and remove any barriers that may prevent reaching potential.
When designing our curriculum we took a number of key factors into consideration, these include:
- The high percentage of boys
- The high number of SEN children
- Challenge for all
- Family involvement
- Our School Environment for eg Learning Outdoors
- Our attainment results
- British Sign Language
- National Curriculum
- What was needed to support our learners to become effective contributors, responsible citizens, successful lifelong learners and confident individuals
- Safeguarding - opportunities to explain and address issues, such as racism, homophobia, and alternative life choices.
Our Curriculum Design
At Roding Primary we worked collaboratively to design our curriculum rationale which is underpinned in our Vision, Values and Aims for our school community. This helps us to create a positive nurturing ethos in which we can all learn together. As a Rights Respecting School, The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child are central to the work we do.
