Our Curriculum
At St Keyna we follow the 2014 National Curriculum but taught through a 'cross curricular' approach. This means that all the writing, history, geography, art, design, drama and some of the computing lessons are based around the topic being taught that term. We believe that this gives our children a more stimulating, engaging and coherent education. For a more detailed picture of what we are covering in your child's year group please see below.
Our Skills Curriculum
We believe that to succeed in learning and in life a certain set of skills are required. We have encapsulated these into a set of animal characteristics and endeavour to build them into everything we do.
The school’s curriculum provides rich opportunities for pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.
Good teaching and clear explanations from teachers help pupils to believe that they can achieve. This approach successfully supports pupils making good progress in reading, writing and mathematics.
