Curriculum Statement
At Trumpington Park Primary, we understand the importance of a well-rounded, fulfilling curriculum that both equips children with key foundational skills and engages them with a broad range of disciplines; to prepare them for the next stage of education, and for their future as UK and global citizens. Personal, Social and Health Education (P.S.H.E.) is central to our curriculum and is reflected in every area of teaching and learning.
We view our curriculum as a 'living document,' subject to constant review and refinement to meet the unique requirements of the children. It aligns with the latest educational guidance and is shaped by the expertise of our subject leaders.
The local community is at the heart of our school. Although Trust-wide, our curriculum is adapted to our context and the children it serves. We have considered important themes relevant to the lives of our pupils and the area in which they live. Staff are fully committed to providing the best. For each individual child, we will seek to maximise their confidence, self‐esteem and independence. Extra‐curricular activities are actively encouraged to enable children to enjoy varied experiences at school, more information can be found here: School Clubs | Trumpington Park Primary School.
