Our School Curriculum

At Twin Oaks, we teach using a thematic approach, which brings learning to life through exciting, child friendly topics.

Topics are designed to meet National Curriculum coverage for the arts and foundation subjects, with practical ideas to develop and apply English and mathematical skills in the context of fun and dynamic cross-curricular lessons.

Our pupils are thoroughly engaged as they tackle challenging and inspiring topics and issues.

Our curriculum intent is to develop resilience, better communication and life skills within real-life contexts. We ensure that the knowledge taught is specific, as well as progressive.

Key vocabulary and terminology that are vital for developing learning and increased depth of understanding are embedded within the curriculum.

Children that know, understand and can apply this language across their learning are more able to use a variety of thinking skills and processes, such as collecting and interpreting data, spotting inference and seeking explanations.
