We are in the process of updating our curricular policies to align them with A Curriculum for Excellence. During this process we would issue the following statement of intent:
Curriculum for Excellence gives advice on the content of a curriculum for all children in Scotland. We aim to provide a broad, balanced curriculum in line with this guidance. We will use the experiences & outcomes of CfE to plan the content of learning & teaching. We will fully utilise the principles of curriculum design to ensure this content is delivered in a flexible, dynamic way to enhance the learning experiences of our pupils.
Curricular Areas:
Literacy & English
Numeracy
Health & Well-being
Mathematics
Social Studies
Expressive Arts
RME
Modern Languages
Science
Technologies
Principles of Curricular Design:
Challenge & Enjoyment
Breadth
Progression
Depth
Personalisation & choice
Coherence
Relevance
In all curricular areas, experiences and outcomes describe content and suggest methodology. The experiences and outcomes are organised in levels to ensure progression. In Sgoil nan Loch, the pertinent levels are:
Early – Pre school years & P1 or later for some.
First – to the end of P4, but earlier or later for some.
Second – to the end of P7, but earlier or later for some.
Third & Fourth – S1 – S3, but earlier for some. |
