In St Mary’s Primary School and Nursery Centre, we embrace the principles within Curriculum for Excellence to develop all our pupils as:

• Successful Learners
• Confident Individuals
• Responsible Citizens
• Effective Contributors

In planning stimulating and motivating activities for our pupils, we actively seek out links within and across a variety of curricular areas, particularly Literacy and Numeracy, providing meaningful contexts for learning.  Through planned cross curricular experiences, our teachers ensure that they are making learning relevant.  This provides pupils with opportunities to apply their knowledge and skills and thereby, develop the four capacities.
