British Values

Through our core values, children are taught to be inclusive, tolerant and respectful individuals to all people they encounter. One of our core personal development values in line with our school motto – ‘Believe in yourself’ – is I am ‘Unique’. 

Personal, Social, Health & Economic (PSHE)

Our PHSE curriculum is comprehensive and taught in an age appropriate way from EYFS right through to year 6. 

We follow the Jigsaw scheme of work and ensure that all issues are covered sensitively and inclusively ensuring all children, regardless of their needs, leave school equipped with the knowledge they need to thrive.

Relationships & Sex Education (RSE)

Relationships and Sex Education is covered comprehensively through our Jigsaw PHSE scheme of work. It progresses cumulatively across the school from EYFS and is taught incrementally, ensuring that children gain the knowledge they need prior to leaving school. 

Enrichment

Enrichment of the cur is key to ensure children become well rounded individuals who have experienced a range of different experiences during their time in primary school. Enrichment offers the opportunity to take learning out of the classroom and experience the wider world and develop positive social skills

Protected Characteristics

The Equality Act states nine protected characteristics. These are taught to pupils throughout their EYFS – Year 11 journey. Pupils have an understanding and awareness of their own rights as well as those around them. Age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation are discussed in an age appropriate manner during RSE, PSHE and the wider curriculum.

Spiritual, Moral, Social & Cultural (SMSC)

Spiritual, moral, social and cultural opportunities are offered from EYFS through to Y11. Pupils are given the opportunity to work and socialise with others for a variety of backgrounds. We offer a range of activities including artistic, sporting and cultural experiences that enhance the mental and physical wellbeing of staff and pupils. Pupils are encouraged to understand their local area and how they can contribute to their community and further afield.

Health & Wellbeing

Health and wellbeing of staff and pupils is central to what we do. Pupils have access to support and guidance. The PSHE and RSE programmnes give pupils knowledge of issues with resilience to enable them to overcome challenges.

Careers

The careers education, information advice and guidance (CEIAG) is at the forefront of the NEAT vision and is woven throughout the EYFS – Y11 curriculum. GATSBY benchmarks support the development and progression of NEAT pupils to raise aspirations. The enhancement of employability skills and progression enables our pupils to reach their potential beyond academia.

Sustainability

Sustainability is taught across the curriculum. For example, RE and Geography covers climate change and the impact on society and Science covers the wider environmental changes and idea of how to counteract human impact. Throughout our educational programme we aim to create socially responsible global citizens that can shape a sustainable future.
