Curriculum: At St. Mary’s they have designed our curriculum with pupils’ learning at the centre with the aim of ensuring that all pupils make progress. They recognise that a curriculum has to be broad, balanced and offer pupils opportunities to grow as individuals as well as learners. As a Catholic School, the teachings of the gospels are at the centre of everything they do. Pupils are taught to treat each other with respect and to support each other in their learning. They aim to ensure that pupils enjoy learning and feel prepared for life after school. They intend to offer our pupils new and exciting experiences that are designed to build resilience, confidence and self-esteem both in the classroom and through extra-curricular activities. We recognise that pupils should be challenged in their school; learning from failures and celebrating successes.
