Teaching and learning

The curriculum is at the heart of education, helping pupils develop a deep body of knowledge, supporting pupils’ life chances by minimising inequality and building the appropriate skills to increase an individual’s capacity to perform.

We can help to evaluate whether the school’s curriculum is well connected, demonstrates ambitious progression and has the depth and breadth to effectively meet the learning and development needs of all pupils.
