Curriculum Rationale
Crookston Castle Primary
The curriculum in Crookston Castle is carefully structured to ensure progression and continuity across a broad and balanced range of subject areas. To view a larger version of of the curriculum rational click Here.
The content and structure of the curriculum are regularly reviewed and updated, as is the methodology by which the curriculum is delivered. Through this we seek to enable our pupils to become successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors.
Links are identified between different curricular subjects and to real life to ensure the curriculum is relevant and meaningful in supporting pupils in becoming active citizens in a modern society. We aim to develop our pupils as lifelong learners, by teaching them a range of lifeskills and strategies.
The curriculum is designed with the following principles:
- Challenge and enjoyment
- Breadth
- Progression
- Depth
- Personalisation and choice
- Coherence
- Relevance
The principles assist teachers and schools in their practice and as a basis for continuing review, evaluation and improvement.
