We want children at Manby Lodge to develop a deep love of learning and the skills they will need to become the best learner they can be, for the rest of their lives.
Our Curriculum is:
Inspirational
We offer exciting, imaginative learning environments and our staff teach with enthusiasm and passion.
We make sure learning is fun, challenging, progressive and purposeful where possible.
We make the most of our school environment – indoors and outdoors.
We work in partnership with parents and our community for trips and visits, we make valuable links that children can recognise, at the same time as exposing children to the wider world.
Inclusive and carefully planned
We nurture individuals from the moment they join us, considering any needs and strengths and building on these.
We know that all children are different and learn at different rates. We plan learning so that it suits each child.
We make sure that well-being, mental health and physical development are key features in our curriculum.
We plan activities so that we can support the growth of each child holistically.
We make sure that children develop skills and knowledge sequentially across all subjects.
We make sure that over time, children are given opportunities to revisit previous learning and to make links between different subject areas.
Ambitious
We expect all of our staff to have high expectations and for children to make excellent progress, so they leave us ready for Junior school.
We expect that children take pride in their learning.
We expect that children’s outcomes are high. We monitor progress all children make throughout the year, and adapt planning in response to gaps identified between the learning of groups of children through data analysis.
