Our Curriculum Rationale is based on the key principles within Curriculum for Excellence as well as the fundamental pedagogy as defined in more recent guidelines e.g. ‘Building the Ambition’, ‘How Good is Our Early Learning and Childcare’, Pre-Birth to Three Guidance.

By embedding a child centred approach to teaching and learning, we aim to deliver experiences for children and families which will promote:

‘Skills for learning, skills for life and skills for work’ Building the Curriculum 4

By working in partnership with staff, children, parents/carers and all other stakeholders, our Curriculum Rationale will continually evolve and change to take account of the needs, skills, expertise and expectations of all involved.
