At New North, we aim to provide a curriculum that motivates, fascinates and challenges every pupil to achieve their very best learning across all areas. We are passionate about what our children CAN do, and our curriculum is built around ensuring children become:
- Literate and numerate;
- Ready, resilient and curious learners;
- Socially responsible;
- Physically and mentally healthy.
In addition, we have three clear Pedagogical Principles that underpin the teaching and learning approach at New North. These are:
- How we make connections (Relational Understanding);
- How we plan, do and review learning (Metacognitive Strategies);
- How we better articulate thinking and learning (Developing Quality Talk).
