Curriculum

 

Teaching at Yorkley School is through a cross curricular approach.  We aim to enhance the children’s learning experiences through regular and frequent educational visits and visitors. We use our local community where possible to develop the children’s learning and understanding of the world around them.

Our approach helps the children to become part of a true learning community.   They develop the skills and attitudes required for life-long enjoyment of learning.   We use integrated topics in our curriculum. Each topic, whilst having a main identifiable theme, will incorporate a diversity of activities, to ensure a balance. Exploring a topic in depth provides the perfect opportunity for children to develop their skills in multiple ways.
