What is the Intent of our Curriculum?
At St Mary’s Catholic Primary School, our knowledge-rich curriculum, entwined by skills which are the by-product of the knowledge, is designed to build on children’s prior learning and experiences by fostering resilience, encouraging children’s thirst for new experiences and developing the skills of enquiry enabling children to speak clearly and confidently about their learning.
We do this by providing the highest possible standards for the children in our care. Through challenging, stimulating creative and inspirational opportunities, we enable children to make connections between their knowledge and skills and work independently and collaboratively.
Children leave St Mary’s belonging to a tightly-knit school community. They have the confidence to make significant decisions through peer and self-reflection and have aspirations and high expectations of themselves, enabling them to enhance their cultural capital and know about life beyond Grimsby.
