Headteacher’s Welcome

• Our knowledge rich curriculum at Rectory Farm is ambitious for all; immersing children in broad and rich experiences, that ignite and sustain interest in the awe and wonder of the world around them.
• Our curriculum goes beyond the requirements of the National Curriculum, meeting the needs and enriching the lives of children within our local context.
• Positive relationships, based on mutual trust and respect are at the heart of everything we do. Our children gain a growing understanding of the world they live in and learn how to live alongside and show respect for a diverse range of people.
• Our curriculum is progressive and well sequenced so that pupils can build on previous learning, make connections, and embed knowledge in the long-term memory.
• Having oracy at the core further enhances our curriculum and gives every child a voice. We create confident, articulate speakers, who are interesting and interested.
• We provide children with the knowledge, skills, and self-belief, which will enable them to: grasp and tenaciously pursue opportunities, excel as individuals and make a positive contribution in every stage of their education and to society in their later lives.

Our subject leaders have a shared vision, that is consistent in its approach, based on evidence-informed strategies.
