Our aim is for our children to leave our school with a love of learning. We will do this through providing high quality memorable learning opportunities in all curriculum areas and by encouraging all children to find their ‘voice’. 

The school aims to provide a knowledge-rich curriculum in a safe learning environment which enables every child to look forward to and be ready for their next stage of education. This curriculum will cover spiritual, academic, physical, artistic, emotional and social education. Through clear Schemes of Work for all subjects, we ensure that learning is progressive and sequential.

All aspects of our curriculum are accessible to all children, irrespective of their ethnic background, gender, disability, religious or linguistic background. We strive hard to meet the needs of those pupils with special educational needs and disabilities, those who are more able, those with special gifts and talents and the children who are learning English as an additional language. We provide a broad, rich, challenging curriculum, which stretches all of our children. Staff are aware of children who have exceptional talents and gifts and monitor and their progress carefully to ensure their academic potential or talent is continually developed.  

St. Joseph’s is very proud of its broad, rich and balanced curriculum.

Where appropriate we use cross curricular opportunities to embed core subjects i.e. Religion, English, Maths, Science.

The children’s knowledge and cultural capital is further enhanced through our range of high quality learning opportunities beyond the school day.
