Our Curriculum Implementation

At the heart of our curriculum are our core subjects of English, Maths, Science and PSHE.  We also truly value our wider curriculum, covering all other National Curriculum subjects.  Progression of knowledge, skills and understanding is carefully planned, reviewed and adapted to ensure that children’s learning builds effectively as they move through the school.  Learning across the curriculum is sequential and each subject area has a clear rationale behind its design.

We are fully committed to providing our children with a wide and rich range of learning experiences beyond the classroom. Our classroom learning is routinely enhanced by interesting and exciting experiences including field studies, visits, workshops, trips and a range of residentials locally and nationally!

At Thomlinson Junior School we are proud of the reputation of our inclusive school environment. Teachers and Teaching Assistants set high expectations for every pupil, responding to pupils’ needs and overcoming potential barriers for individuals and groups of pupils. Lessons are planned to ensure that there are no barriers to every pupil achieving. Where necessary, pupils have access to specialist equipment and different approaches. Teachers plan lessons so that all pupils can access the full curriculum.
