Our Curriculum
Cross-Curricular Teaching
At Whitehall we have developed a whole school curriculum based on the National Frameworks, which make meaningful links between different subject areas. The children learn through 'Topics' which provides the opportunity for children to develop their English and Mathematical skills whilst learning about other areas of the curriculum. Using a cross-curricular approach exploits the links between areas of learning; we know that this is how children learn best. Every term we plan for a WOW event to stimulate our children's interests. This involves either a trip out, a visitor or special event in school.
Our curriculum challenges and supports all pupils to reach their full potential in all subjects. We develop their strengths and support children to progress in all areas, whilst nurturing and fostering a love of learning. Our children tell us that they love their topics and show great enthusiasm for learning!
Please see below our whole school topic map. This shows each termly topic within your child's year group together with any trips/visitors they will be taking part in.
