At St Stephen’s CE Primary School, our Christian values run through our school like a golden thread and enable our children to flourish and ASPIRE in life. Our Christian vision: ‘for with God, nothing is impossible’ ( Luke 1 : 37), helps support and guide our whole school community in striving to beat our previous best endeavours.
The key principles of our ASPIRE vision support our decision-making process at St Stephen’s CE Primary School for the curriculum. With these principles in place, our children are able to know more and remember more across development of our broad and balanced curriculum
ASPIRE Curriculum - Key Principles:
A whole school curriculum with high expectations and excellence delivered rigorously through well sequenced subjects, progression in generative knowledge, rich vocabulary, concepts and skills,
Stimulating enquiring minds by providing rich and relevant experiences, purposeful and connected learning, and creative thinking
Placing nurturing, lifelong learning behaviours – resilience, risk taking, independence, perseverance, and pride in success - at the heart of our curriculum
Inclusivity and flexibility which allows us to cater for individual needs, abilities and interests
Revisiting key knowledge, skills and vocab, so pupils know more and remember more
Encompassing the Whole Child – developing their faith, values, spirituality, health and well-being, and understanding of the world we live in, their future role in our culturally diverse community and country where equality and tolerance is promoted
