Our Curriculum 

At Cheam Park Farm, we empower pupils to become lifelong learners through an evidence-informed curriculum which is ambitious for all, balanced, well-sequenced and diverse. This enables pupils to build increasingly rich schemata as they move through the primary years and develop their cultural capital. 

Our Curriculum: Designed for Success and Enrichment

• Fostering a love of learning: We use proven methods to inspire a lifelong passion for learning in all pupils, ensuring extra support for those with special needs or disadvantages.

• Solid foundations for the future: Our curriculum exceeds national standards, ensuring strong reading, language, and subject knowledge from Early Years, through Key Stage 2 and beyond. Our curriculum offer facilitates the development of interconnectedness between substantive knowledge (facts and concepts) and disciplinary skills (skills and processes), ensuring a progressive learning journey.

• Technology-enhanced learning: We embrace a PedTech approach, integrating digital tools to make learning accessible for all, promote engagement, and develop essential tech skills for a changing world.

• Beyond the classroom: Extensive extra-curricular and enrichment activities maximize every pupil's potential and broaden their experiences.

We commit to developing well-rounded pupils, focusing on developing the whole child: socially, emotionally, physically, academically and creatively, fostering active citizens, confident learners, healthy individuals, and future leaders.

How We Achieve This

• Evidence-based approach: Our teaching methods are backed by extensive research for proven effectiveness.

• Regular assessment and improvement: We constantly evaluate our curriculum to ensure it is challenging and relevant for the context of our pupils.

• Memory and skill development: Through targeted techniques like retrieval practice, our pupils can effectively retain knowledge and apply it meaningfully across the curriculum.
