Our Curriculum

As part of the cross-phase Dartmoor Multi-Academy Trust, we offer a broad and balanced curriculum, which builds on the knowledge, understanding and skills of all children, whatever their starting points, as they progress through each Key Stage.

Our curriculum is inclusive and allows all types of learners, those with SEN and high ability and talented children to thrive.  Our children are encouraged to think about how they are living their lives, to be good citizens in school, the community and globally. The curriculum incorporates the statutory requirements of the National Curriculum 2014 and is enriched through experiences and opportunities which best meet the learning and developmental needs of the children in our school.

We foster a love for education, school, friends, family and ourselves. Using social learning, daily worships and RE lessons we encourage a strong personal focus on love for others. Wherever possible children will take part in a trip, visitor or experience each term. The school places a high priority on the performing arts; public speaking, dance, drama, singing and music. Through our daily worships the children regularly sing and perform. Specialist music teachers are employed to promote the playing of instruments whilst festivals such as Harvest, Christmas and Easter are led by the children in St Mary’s church.

The main aim of our curriculum is for children to have the requisite skills to be successful, independent and motivated learners in readiness for their next stage of education; preparing them for life as global citizens in the 21st century. Children who attend Exbourne Primary School build cultural capital by working within the community and local church to improve their local area. The school has strong links with the Anglican and Methodist churches as well as members of our community. We strive to ensure all our children are lifelong learners and build upon their skills and knowledge gained at our school.

The areas of the curriculum include English, Maths, Science, Design and Technology, History, Geography, Music, Art, Physical Education and PSHE (Personal, Social and Health Education). KS2 also studies a Modern Foreign Language and Religious Education is taught following the Devon agreed syllabus. Various methods of teaching strategies and techniques are employed in the classroom

We use the Devon Book Banding scheme supported with Babcock Learning and Development Partnership's 'Rethink Reading' principles.
We use the 'Letters and Sounds' Phonics teaching sequence. More information can be found here.

The school uses a two-year rolling programme in KS1 and a two-year rolling programme in KS2 to deliver these subjects through a topic based curriculum. Policies, long and medium term planning are available for these subjects. 

More information on the National Curriculum can be found here.
