National Curriculum

At Little Milton Primary School, we make coherent use of the National Curriculum. The curriculum is organised to facilitate the development of children at their own individual pace.  A range of teaching methods is used including whole class, group work and individual teaching. Please see the links below for information on the National Curriculum:

 

Cornerstones Curriculum

Here at Little Milton CE Primary School, we provide a broad and balanced curriculum based around the Cornerstones Curriculum, a nationally recognised approach for delivering outstanding learning opportunities for children.

What is the Cornerstones Curriculum? The Cornerstones Curriculum is a creative and thematic approach to learning that is mapped to the 2014 primary national curriculum to ensure comprehensive coverage of national expectations. It is based on a child-centred pedagogy called The Four Cornerstones and is delivered through Imaginative Learning Projects (ILPs) and Knowledge Rich Projects (KRPs), which provide a rich menu of exciting and motivating learning activities that make creative links between all aspects of children’s learning.

We believe children learn better when they are encouraged to use their imagination and apply their learning to engaging contexts. Our curriculum provides many learning challenges throughout the academic year that require children to solve problems, apply themselves creatively and express their knowledge and understanding effectively.

Cornerstones also provide a rigorous skills and knowledge framework that outlines the end of year expectations in all subjects. These skills and knowledge are tied to activities and are age-related so that staff can track children’s progress and identify their individual learning needs.

 

Reading & Phonics Schemes

We use ‘Little Wandle Letters and Sounds’ and ‘Spelling shed’ schemes for the teaching of phonics and spelling.
