Our Curriculum
At Ghost Hill we believe that 'every second counts.' This is true both in and out of school. After all - you are only 5 years old once!
In October 2022 - we introduced three values to work to in our school:
-
Try Hard
-
Be Brave
-
Be You
We also have three Behaviour Rules:
-
Ready
-
Respectful
-
Safe
At Ghost Hill we have developed a curriculum intent that is pertinent and ambitious for our children. Staff carefully develop a responsive curriculum that meets children's interests and needs. Our curriculum is carefully mapped with the Early Years Foundation Stage providing the 'building blocks of knowledge' in preparation for children to begin The National Curriculum from Key Stage One. Our planning of provision, is unique from year to year, group to group and individual to individual. We glean information from the experts (your children and you the parents), observe the children in their play and lessons, identify their fascinations, strengths and areas for development then plan experiences and opportunities that will excite, interest and challenge them. We have high expectations of all learners and design the implementation of the curriculum to prepare them for their next stage in education at Junior School.
Ghost Hill is committed to providing all pupils with a broad and balanced curriculum, alongside developing their Personal Development through our wider offer. We believe that the curriculum is not just enacted in the classroom and is a much broader experience; including trips, visits, extracurricular opportunities and work in our local community.
