• Art and Design
  Art and Design

  At Bourne, our aim is to develop children’s skills and knowledge through the National Curriculum, so that they are proud of their achievements at all stages of the artistic process. They use a range of materials in order to become increasingly proficient at drawing, painting, printing and sculpture.

  Alongside developing the practical aspects of Art and Design, children learn about great artists, craftspeople, architects and designers in history. They use vocabulary accurately and can share their thoughts about works of art with increasing confidence.

  Children will be encouraged to reflect on and evaluate their own work and that of others. They willbe introduced to a range of art works, styles and explore the work of artists from different periods and cultures. Children will also begin learn and understand how art impacts and enhances society and our surroundings.

  Implementation

  National curriculum objectives are broken down into key skills which are then allocated across different year groups to ensure full coverage.

  Teachers plan lessons using these progressions of skillsto ensure key skills, knowledge and understanding build year on year. We ensure art topics are inspiring and exciting,stimulating and relevant to the children’s interests and enthusiasms. Children will be able to build on their skills within a project to produce an individual and creative response to the stimuli provided.

  The curriculum has been developed for our children to ensure

  • They can explore the work of artists
  • They can talk about the features of different artists’ work
  • Identify works of art in the world we live in today
  • They can express opinions and preferences towards different types of art
  • They have the opportunity to explore a range of materials
  • They create pieces of their own inspired by the work of others
  • They explore different techniques across the different mediums
  • They develop confidence in making, and talking about, their own works of art and those of others

  Children will also have the opportunity to develop and learn other art/craft skills through links to other curriculum areas and annual events.

  Throughout each unit covered, children are exposed to technical knowledge and vocabulary and the work of various artists, craftspeople, architects and designers.

  Impact

  • Our children can talk passionately about their learning using appropriate technical vocabulary
  • They can articulate new knowledge, skills and language learnt.
  • Children can say how learning and understanding is built on previous learning.
  • They make connections with other curriculum subjects
  • The children talk of themselves as artists
  • Children feel successful

• Design and Technology
  Design and Technology

  At Bourne, our intent for Design Technology (DT) is to provide a comprehensive and progressive course following the National Curriculum. We enable our pupils to develop essential skills, knowledge, and understanding in design, creativity, and problem-solving. We aim to foster a love for DT, inspiring our pupils to become confident users of technology and encouraging them to explore and evaluate the world around them.

  We ensure that our DT curriculum is carefully planned and sequenced, allowing pupils to build upon prior knowledge and skills as they progress. Our curriculum is balanced and covers a wide range of areas of DT that engages our pupils. By linking DT to other areas of the curriculum, we provide real-life and purposeful design challenges that are relevant to their lives. Through practical experiences, our pupils have opportunities to design, make, and evaluate products using a range of tools, materials, and components.

  Our pupils' work showcases their ability to apply their knowledge to solve real-life problems, demonstrating creativity, innovation, and technical competence. The pupils' curiosity is ignited, fostering a passion for and a lifelong interest in design and technology where they are motivated to take risks, be innovative, and always to think creatively. They understand the impact of design on their lives and the world around them.

• Computing
  Computing

  The school’s computing curriculum is planned and sequenced so that new computing knowledge and skills build on what has been taught before. The curriculum remains as broad as possible for as long as possible, and coverage of: digital literacy, E-safety, online research, programming, understanding technology, are covered across the year groups and demonstrate natural development. Most digital literacy and online research is embedded where possible in other topics e.g. using Word to create a fact sheet or an app to film with a green screen background. There is high academic/vocational/technical ambition for all pupils, and the school does not offer disadvantaged pupils or pupils with SEND a reduced curriculum.

• French
  ,
  French

  At Bourne we are always looking to broaden horizons and to open up new experiences and learning to all of our children. Being able to study a different language and learn about another country and culture gives a whole new perspective on the world.

  Speaking and listening are the two most important strands of language learning and we try to promote opportunities to listen to authentic French speakers and to practise new words and phrases frequently in the target language.

  Reading and writing also form part of our curriculum with a focus on phonics to help learn the different sounds in French and associate them with the written word. Children are also encouraged to write words and phrases, gradually building up to sentences and short paragraphs.

  We are fortunate enough to have access to a wide range of learning materials and resources to broaden understanding of French and the French speaking world.

• Geography
  ,
  Geography

  Our Geography curriculum is designed to inspire children's curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Our pupils will be equipped with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earths key physical and human processes. As pupils progress, their growing knowledge about the world should help them deepen their understanding of the interaction between physical and human processes, and the formation and use of landscapes and environments. Geographical knowledge, understanding and skills provide the frameworks and approaches that explain how the Earths features at different scales are shaped, interconnected and change over time.

  Key Stage One

  In line with National Curriculum guidance, at key Stage 1,children should develop knowledge about the world, the United Kingdom and their locality. They should understand basic subject-specific vocabulary relating to human and physical Geography and begin to use Geographical skills, including first-hand observation, to enhance their locational awareness.

  Key Stage Two

  At Key Stage 2, children should extend their knowledge and understanding beyond the local area to include the United Kingdom and Europe, north and South America. This will include the location and characteristics or a range of the world, most significant human and physical features. They should develop their use of geographical knowledge, understanding and skills to enhance their locational and place knowledge.

  From September 2020, it is a statutory requirement that all primary schools in England and Wales teach Relationships and Health Education as a fundamental part of the curriculum.

  The requirements of the new Relationships and Health Education curriculum will be taught mainly throughPSHCE and science. Parents will not be able to withdraw their child from any aspect of Relationships Education or Health Education. However, parents will be able to withdraw their child (following discussion with the school) from anyadditional aspects of Sex Educationwhich are not part of the science curriculum (for details, please see the RHE policy below).

  RHE policy

  We will be using Coram Education's SCARF resources and curriculum to teach PSHE including RHE. The curriculum overview is below:

• Global Citizenship
  Global Citizenship

  Global Citizenship is one of our curriculum drivers at Bourne. In all of our learning we understand that as Global citizens, we accept differences and do not react with hostility to people who are different from us; we are willing to help and cooperate with others; and we have our own ideas and express them, but we are open to changing them if we are proved wrong.

  We have the superb Shelley Wilson who teaches gymnastics to all children at Bourne, as well as coaching our very own Gym Squad who compete every year and achieve great results! Shelley also runs an After School Club which is bookable termly on Arbor.

  Shelley has coached at world and European levels for 25 years and we have been lucky enough to have had her with us for 7 years, inspiring and coaching our little gymnasts!

• History
  History

  Our History curriculum is designed to ensure that all pupils have a knowledge and understanding of the history of Britain from the earliest times to the present day and how Britain has influenced and been influenced by the wider world. It gives our children the knowledge and understanding of the significant aspects of history of the wider world. Children gain an understanding of historical concepts such as continuity and change, cause and consequence, similarity, difference and significance, and use them to make connections, draw contrasts, analyse trends, frame historically valid questions and create their own structured accounts.

  Key Stage 1

  In key Stage 1, children develop an awareness of the past, using common words and phases relating to the passing of time. They identify similarities and differences between ways of life in different periods; and know and understand key features of events. Children understand some of the ways in which we find out about the past and identify different ways in which it is represented.

  Key Stage 2

  In key Stage 2, children continue to develop a chronologically secure knowledge and understanding of British, local and world history. They note connections, contrasts and trends over time and develop the appropriate use of historical terms. Our children understand how our knowledge of the past is constructed from a range of sources.

  The way we construct our topic planning for history is cross curricular and develops skills across subjects.

• PSHE
  PSHE

  At Bourne Primary School, we recognise the importance of personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) education and the role it plays in developing our pupils into healthy, independent, and responsible individuals who are prepared for life and work. Our curriculum builds upon the children’s first stages of development through progressive and sequenced topics, which revolve around three key themes: relationships, health and wellbeing and living in the wider world. Within the study of PSHE, our children develop the knowledge, skills, and attributes they need to manage their lives, now and in the future.

  PSHE that not only is taught, but embedded in our ethos at Bourne Primary School ensuring children are given wide perspectives to the diverse society that we live in today. Pupils develop fully as:

  • individuals as they focus on their own personal development; believing in themselves, building resilience, developing habits to lead a healthy life
  • members of families and social communities; understanding how to relate to others and adopt teamwork skills
  • members of economic communities; developing their awareness of the part that they play and how to live responsibly

  We teach PSHE to provide the link between pupils’ health and wellbeing, and their academic progress. We know the value of focusing on promoting positive behaviour, mental health, wellbeing, resilience, and achievement will impact their whole education.

  We believe that PSHE plays a vital part of primary education and is therefore timetabled to be taught at least weekly to ensure that quality time is dedicated to these areas. Many objectives from the curriculum are covered as part of school assemblies, where children’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural curiosity is stimulated, challengedand nurtured. Thedistribution of the lessons compliments key campaigns throughout the year, such asNational Anti-bullying Week and E-safety Week.

  At Bourne Primary School we follow a scheme of Work called SCARF – Safety, Caring, Achievement, Resilience, Friendship (Coram Life Education). Which is centred on a values-based and ‘Growth Mindset’ approach, SCARF’s lesson plans and resources help to promote positive behaviour, mental health, wellbeing, resilience and achievement. There is now a proven link between pupils’ health and wellbeing, and their academic progress. Crucial skills and positive attitudes developed through comprehensive Personal, Social, Health and Economic education (PSHE) is critical to ensuring children are effective learners and SCARF provides a whole-school approach to building these essential foundations – crucial for children to achieve their best, academically and socially.

  SCARF lesson plans are organised around the PSHE Association’s Programmes of Study Learning Opportunities, which includes three core themes of Health and Wellbeing; Relationships; and, Living in the Wider World. These themes have been broken down into six main areas for termly coverage, and are ordered as follows:

  • Me and My Relationships
  • Valuing Difference
  • Keeping Myself Safe
  • Rights and Responsibilities
  • Being my Best
  • Growing and Changing

  Beyond our documented curriculum, it is hoped that the school’s values provide a culture that contributes equally towards the pastoral development of our children. Therefore, our teaching approach places great emphasis upon collaboration and cooperation: group work is a key element of all classrooms, enabling our pupils to achieve success together. Beyond this, pupils are encouraged to show leadership in their community through the school council.

  At Bourne Primary School, our PSHE curriculum demonstrates appropriate subject knowledge, skills and understanding to fulfil the statutory duties of the Relationship Education (RE), Relationship and Sex Education (RSE) and Health Education (HE) curriculums. It is hoped that our overall curriculum is designed to directly support the pastoral education of our pupils as well as the academic outcomes that the school aims for.

  • Children will demonstrate and apply the British Values of Democracy, Tolerance, Mutual respect, Rule of law and Liberty.
  • Children will demonstrate a healthy outlook towards school – attendance will be in-line with national average and behaviour will be good.
  • Participation in extra-curricular activity both in school and beyond is encouraged and celebrated.
  • Pupil Voice Surveys are used to assess knowledge of how to stay safe and emotionally confident within the school.
  • Children will become healthy and responsible members of society.
  • Levels of volunteering both within the school through litter picking, librarians and playground leaders, and within the community through choir concerts
  • Children will achieve age related expectations across the wider curriculum.
  • Children will be well prepared for their journey preparing them for life and work in the modern world.

• Reading
  Reading

  Our intent is for every child to leave Bourne as fluent and confident readers. We intend for our students to grow as passionate readers, where reading is used for different purposes - developing knowledge, widening understanding, and developing their imagination. Pupils understand that reading is for pleasure and information, experiencing shared reading of a broad range of texts. They are motivated to read both inside of school, and outside due to the teachers shared passion. At Bourne, we see children excel in early reading through the use of the Read Write Inc. (RWI) programme from Reception to Year 2. In KS2, pupils access reading through Book Talk, a system developed by Jane Considine.

  Phonics Screening Check

  In Key Stage 1 children are assessed at the end of Year 1 using a Government Statutory Assessment Tool known as the Phonics Screening Check. This screening check confirms whether the child has learnt phonic decoding to an appropriate standard and will identify sounds needing further consolidation in Year 2.

  A free website to help you support your child with reading and foster a love of reading. It includes: Over 100 FREE ebooks to enjoy with your child; A Phonics guide (including how to say the sounds correctly); Ideas for motivating boys to read; Great ideas to keep them reading in the holidays; Reading games and activities.	Would you like to find out more about RWInc.? Well here’s your chance … click on the image to view some of our RWInc. lessons in action!	Fantastic free phonics games for your budding reader to play at home. Includes games that will support the Year 1 phonics screening check. These games include alien and real words. They will really support children with their sounding out.

  At Bourne Primary School we follow the Read Write Inc programme to teach phonics, reading and inspire our writing. Read Write Inc starts in Nursery wherechildren learn theSet 1 Speed Sounds. The Read Write Inc learning journey then continues into Reception and Key Stage 1. Children are assessed at the end of each half term, are grouped accordingly and progress through the programme providing suitable challenges for their assessed phonics level.

  Here you will find LOADS of fabulous alphabet and phonics games and interactive online stories. So much to choose from … your child will never be bored!	Phonics games and printable resources to boost reading of high frequency words and practise your sounds	The CBeebies ALPHABLOCKS has a great site where your children can play games and watch short video clips … all with phonics as the focus.

  READING IN KS2

  

  ‘Book Talk’ is a systematic way to teach reading strategies. It is underpinned by certain guiding principles; these are outlined below:

  1. Pupils are organised into reading attainment groups and share a set of the ‘same’ books pitched at their level with appropriate challenge.

  2. All pupils in the classroom will be accessing narrative, non-fiction or poetry at the same time.

  3. Pupils will receive a daily 30 minute ‘Book Talk’ session and once a week will intensively work with the class teacher for a ‘guided read’

  4.The session is layered with open-ended whole class questions to tackle the three layers of the reading rainbow.

  "On average, reading comprehension approaches improve learning by an additional five months' progress." Education Endowment Foundation

  The use of techniques such as graphic organisers and drawing pupils‘ attention to text structures are likely to be particularly useful when reading a range of non-fiction texts.

  5. A hallmark of the session is on developing reading for meaning and oral comprehension techniques.

  6. Book Talk is structured with three reasons to read. The reasons to read are taken from ‘The Reading Rainbow’. One reason is taken from the top layer of the rainbow under FANTASTIC. The second reason is taken from the STYLISTIC layer. The third reason is taken from the ANALYTICS layer. These are introduced to the pupils in chunks and it is through these generic lenses they think and discuss their reading material.

  7. The sessions work best if they operate like conversations about books and ‘hands up’ is not used so there is a natural flow of talk about what they are reading.

  8. During these sessions the pleasure principle of reading is fostered and highly engaging picture books should be used in favour of phonic based books to heighten engagement and excitement.

  9. ‘Book Talk’ is sharply focused on reading for meaning, listening to friends read and talking about books.

  10. During these sessions pupils could be ‘reading around the group’, reading in pairs or reading to themselves and the teacher will direct them in these different organisational ways.

  In addition to Book Talk, children regularly take part in 'Stamina for reading' sessions and comprehension lessons.

• Relationships and Sex Education (RSE)
  Relationships and Sex Education (RSE)

  From September 2020, it is a statutory requirement that all primary schools in England and Wales teach Relationships and Health Education as a fundamental part of the curriculum.

  The requirements of the new Relationships and Health Education curriculum will be taught mainly through PSHCE and science. Parents will not be able to withdraw their child from any aspect of Relationships Education or Health Education. However, parents will be able to withdraw their child (following discussion with the school) from any additional aspects of Sex Education which are not part of the science curriculum (for details, please see the RHE policy below).

  RHE policy

  We will be using Coram Education's SCARF resources and curriculum to teach PSHE including RHE. The curriculum overview is below:

• Religious Education
  Religious Education

  Religious Education is an essential element of the curriculum and contributes to the personal and

  intellectual development of children and young people. The new Agreed Syllabus will help them to develop an understanding of the religious traditions and worldviews represented in our community, preparing them to encounter the diversity of beliefs and values present locally, nationally and globally.

  We strive to cultivate a sense of shared values and understanding and respect for the diversity of religions, beliefs and cultures that enrich the school community.

• Science
  Science

  The Science Curriculum at Bourne provides the foundations for understanding the world through the ‘lenses’ of biology, chemistry and physics. In an ever-changing scientific world, science is valued as a core. All pupils are taught essential aspects of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science. Through building up a body of key foundational knowledge and concepts, pupils are encouraged to recognise the power of rational explanation and develop a sense of excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena. They are encouraged to understand how science can be used to explain what is occurring, predict how things will behave, and analyse causes.

  The National Curriculum for Science aims to ensure that all pupils:

  • Developscientific knowledge and conceptual understandingthrough the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics;
  • Develop understanding of thenature, processes and methods of sciencethrough different types of science enquiries that help them to answer scientific questions about the world around them;
  • Are equipped with the scientific knowledge required to understand theuses and implicationsof science, today and for the future.

  Guided by the National Curriculum, specific learning objectives are identified for each year group.These objectives provide guidance for teacher planning, including incorporating a number of key enquiry skills that help children answer scientific questions about the world.

  Most science topics are revisited in different year groups to ensure retention, building upon, and applying previously learned concepts in order to develop deeper links.

  In EYFS pupils are given the opportunity to develop their scientific knowledge and understanding through continuous provision and a variety of exciting activities.

  In Nursery pupils will:

  - Explore materials, including similarities, differences and changes

  - Use their senses

  - Explore how things work, including forces

  - Take care of plants, the natural environment and living things

  - Understand life cycles

  In Reception pupils will:

  - Explore the natural world, identifying similarities and differences

  - Recognise that environments are different from the one we live in

  - Learn and explore the different seasons

  -Understand processes and change

• Writing
  Writing

  Children who develop a love of reading become brilliant writers. They understand that there are different purposes and audiences and can adapt the way they communicate. Teachers directly teach ambitious vocabulary drawn from texts read, and the wider curriculum. Children will be exposed to a wide vocabulary and use it with purpose. They have a strong understanding of grammar and transcription which enable them to be confident writers. We use a wide variety of quality texts and resources to motivate and inspire our children in their writing, with RWI used in KS1 and The Write Stuff (Jane Considine) in KS2.
