Creative curriculum
Many areas of the curriculum are connected together and integrated within a theme. The teaching and learning is designed to support children’s natural curiosity and stimulate their creativity. It offers children the opportunity to work in depth, giving them the time they need to reflect, consolidate and transfer their learning.
