Woodlea Primary School

The New Woodlea Curriculum

Subject leaders worked together in 2024 to create a new curriculum that is highly ambitious for all children, with inspirational core texts and reading at the heart of each term’s learning, opportunities for outdoor learning in our unique woodland setting and the cultural capital they need to succeed and enjoy life.  Our curriculum is carefully sequenced to be progressive and spirals from Reception to Year 6, enabling children to build on, apply and make links in their knowledge and skills over time.  Our deep understanding of our children’s needs and life experiences informed our curriculum design to ensure that it addresses identified gaps in these. 

This is enhanced by the adaptation of high-quality schemes for some subjects, carefully chosen to complement our curriculum and facilitate the best possible outcomes for our children.  We use Read Write Inc for Phonics and in Years 1-6 we also use adapted versions of: The Literacy Tree for English; White Rose for maths; Developing Experts for science; Kapow for history, geography, art, DT and computing; Language Angels for French; Charanga for Music; SCARF for PSHE and RSE and the PE Hub for Physical Education.  We follow the Hampshire Agreed Syllabus for RE and expand this with resources from Kapow.  Our curriculum is accompanied with detailed skills, knowledge and vocabulary progression documents for every subject.  

Parents have the right to withdraw their children from religious education and/or collective worship. Parents/carers should contact the school to discuss this.
