NEPS Curriculum Statement North Ealing Primary School Click for our statement Curriculum Vision NEPS Vision At NEPS we inspire and nurture all our children to become aspirational life-long learners through an inclusive, ambitious and engaging curriculum. Our Values We expect everyone to strive to develop a mindset to reach their potential. We foster our vision through a culture in which our NEPS Learning Values shape all of our interactions, are explicitly and implicitly taught through a curriculum underpinned by our four core principles: Nurturing Values: focusing on wellbeing and relationships and sustainability Enquiring: questioning, listening carefully to others, learning together for the benefit of all Purposeful learning: Always making connections, working hard and developing a growth mind-set and metacognition Sustainability: enjoying and appreciating the simple things. Behaving in a loving and caring way Curriculum Principles Our four core principles underpin the organisation of our curriculum: Nurturing Values: Underpinned by our Learning Values, British Values and the articles taken from the UN rights of the child, we develop every child so that they can experience life to the fullest and are ready for the next stage of their education. Enquiring: With big questions, big ideas and an investigative nature, we allow children to generate their own questions, think critically, forge and develop meaningful connections of the key concepts. Purposeful Learning: We have an understanding of concepts we want children to know at the end of each year. And we believe in making all learning purposeful by making links, providing context and relevant enrichment. Sustainability: A considered way of life – caring for the environment and each other is embedded across our curriculum with real life implications being taught in many areas of the curriculum and addressed via SMSC, British Values and the teaching of Unicef Rights. NEPS Curriculum Statement Our coherent curriculum at North Ealing, based on the National Curriculum and the EYFS development matters guidance, places our children at the centre of their learning and is designed to provide an enquiring, broad and balanced education that constantly builds on and deepens our children’s knowledge, understanding and skills. It provides opportunities for all children to acquire independence, develop as well rounded, curious, lifelong-learners, with high aspirations and an understanding of how to make a positive contribution to their community and the wider society. Our curriculum is inclusive and carefully sequenced to provide all children (whatever their starting point) with a rigorous foundation for future progression. It engenders high expectations and challenges in order to build children’s resilience and self-belief. We promote mental well-being through the formal and informal curriculum as this is a key element that supports the development of the whole child and a positive and happy attitude to learning. Our curriculum celebrates and promotes British Values, embraces diversity and utilises, as well as contributes to, the skills, knowledge and cultural wealth of our community while supporting our children’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. We want children to have the requisite skills to be successful, independent and motivated learners in readiness for their next stage of their education.
