Vision

At Marfleet we want to give all our children the best start in life academically and as citizens. Above all, we want them to be highly literate, able to access all the learning necessary to prepare them for a complex, changing, technological and competitive world.

At our school we recognise children’s individual learning needs. We strive to create an environment and opportunities that enable all children to achieve success. For some, this might involve personalised support, small group work or parents and staff working in partnership with our SEND team.

We want all our students to be ambitious for themselves and about their futures. We will provide the pathways and support for them to realise their ambitions.

Statutory Curriculum

Alongside our statutory core subjects of Reading, Writing, Maths and Science, as laid out in the National Curriculum, our wider curriculum includes:

  • History
  • Geography
  • RE*
  • MFL (French)
  • Art
  • Design and Technology
  • Roots (Healthy Minds and Bodies)/PHSCE (Personal, Health, Social, Citizenship, Emotional)
  • Computing
  • Music
  • PE, including swimming

Some of these subjects are delivered by specialist staff.

*We recognise the importance of teaching Religious Education (RE) in a creative, knowledge-rich, broad and balanced way. Learning activities provide fully for the needs of all pupils, so that they develop a wide range of skills including enquiry, analysis, interpretation, evaluation and reflection. They provide opportunities to engage in meaningful and informed dialogue with those of all religions and world views.

RE lessons provide a safe space to explore religious, spiritual and/or philosophical ways of seeing, living and thinking, believing and belonging.

We would hope that all children will enjoy participating fully in RE. We aim to provide an open curriculum which can be taught to all pupils, by all staff. However, parents have a right to withdraw their children from RE. If you wish to do this, please contact the school to discuss in more detail.

Intent 

At Marfleet we want to ensure all learners, receive the knowledge and cultural capital they need to succeed in life. Our curriculum extends beyond the academic, technical or vocational. It provides for our wonderful children broader development, enabling them to develop and discover their interests and talents. We want our children to leave us well rounded, respectable and ready for the world!

  • It is much more than a ‘curriculum’ it is what we believe in as a school
  • It has been built with every single Marfleet child in mind
  • Its focus is on developing the ‘Whole child’ not just their academic ability 

 

Implementation 

The Marfleet Learning Goal (MLG)

The Marfleet Learning Goal (MLG) takes the form of a journey from EYFS to the moment our children leave us at the end of Year 6. This journey is mapped out with a series of checkpoints that our teachers will endeavor to make sure each child meets. This will then ensure that each child has the relevant skills and experiences to progress to the next stage of the learning and ultimately we want to ensure our children are ready for secondary school.
