Our Curriculum Intent

At Thrupp Primary School, our aim is to provide an engaging, exciting and empowering curriculum that equips our children for today and tomorrow, enabling them to become lifelong learners. Guided by our motto “Doing our best to be our best”, we strive to foster an environment where every child can thrive, developing their skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to succeed.

Our curriculum is designed to recognise each child’s unique strengths and prior learning. Through our Thrupp learning powers we promote positive attitudes to learning, encouraging responsibility, and the development of key skills necessary for future success:

• Resilient
• Curious
• Aspire
• Relate
• Reflect

We provide:

• First-hand learning experiences that promote creativity.
• Opportunities for critical thinking.
• Nurturing environments in which children develop interpersonal skills.
• Purposeful topic-based learning that allows our children to make meaningful connections.
• Real life experiences to ensure our children are invested in their learning.
• Exploration of diversity - due to our demographic, we ensure that all of our children gain a deep understanding of the world, giving them the tools to navigate a multicultural and diverse society with respect and empathy.
• A wealth of enrichment opportunities, such as our ‘Be the Best Fridays’, which are shaped by the interests and needs of our children and their families, ensuring learning is relevant, engaging and inspiring.
• Rich opportunities for learning in our local environment, fostering a deeper connection to our community.

Through this approach, we aim to nurture well-rounded individuals, who are confident and capable. When children leave Thrupp, they do so with a strong sense of belonging to a supportive and inclusive community.

In everything we do, we are “Doing our best to be our best”, ensuring every child at Thrupp Primary School is empowered to reach their full potential, equipped with the cultural capital and skills to thrive in an ever-changing world.
