# Curriculum Overview

### **Curriculum**

At Hillsborough Primary School, we have developed a ‘Learning Journey’ approach to our curriculum which intends to:

Our 3 values, believe, belong, become, are woven with our curriculum aspirations and
help us create learners who:

- **Believe** – in their own strengths and in those of others.
- **Belong** – to a community who cares for them, supports all of their needs and challenges
- their thinking.
- **Become** – the individual who they aspire to be, achieving their full potential.
- Together, our values and high expectations shape a curriculum that supports our
- children academically, socially and personally, preparing them well for their next stage
- of learning and life.

We place a strong emphasis on English and Maths skills and we have been awarded our third Basic Skills Award.

Our curriculum provides opportunities to explore new countries, investigate the world around us and learn how to stay healthy. We believe in creating a learning environment that encourages independence, risk taking and lifelong learning skills.
