At Sandford St Martin’s Primary School the curriculum, underpinned by our Christian foundation, prepares our children for a constantly changing world, giving them the necessary skills to contribute to society and lead happy, healthy lives. We place great importance on providing a wide and exciting curriculum. We follow a topic based approach and where possible involve visits and visitors to engage, motivate and inspire.
Our curriculum provides children with the opportunity to:
- Learn to value others, their views, cultures and beliefs
- Celebrate the uniqueness of everyone, treating everyone with care and respect
- Develop a range of skills to support life-long learning
- Communicate and interact effectively with others
- Listen and empathise
- Make a positive contribution to the school, local and wider community
- Enjoy the challenge of learning in a variety of ways, making full use of the indoor and outdoor environment and the wider locality
- Become reflective learners who have a sense of responsibility for their own learning and development
- Learn independently, with and from others
- Become active learners who are resilient and adaptable
- Know the importance of achieving your best
