The East Hanningfield Curriculum

Our East Hanningfield Curriculum is delivered through engaging and exciting topics which are designed to cover the breadth and depth of the skills and knowledge from the National Curriculum. 

We have planned exciting topics which cover knowledge and skills to specifically meet the needs of our East Hanningfield children.

Much as a tree needs different elements, such as soil, water and earth, to enable it to thrive, so the children of East Hanningfield Primary Academy need different elements to their education, in order that they thrive in preparation for the next steps in their education and their lives beyond.

In order to access the wider curriculum, it is vital that the 'root' skills of the fundamentals are in place.  For example, reading skills are vital to access history and geography, and maths to access science.

As 'branches' provide breadth for the tree, so exposing children to a broad, rich curriculum inspires children to exploire wider subject matter and become the engineers, dancers, musicians or scientists of the future.  It develops ambition, enables self-esteem,promotes wellbeing and facilitates personal development.
