Curriculum
We want to make sure your child learns well.
Here is how we plan our teaching:
Careful Planning: Our subject leaders and teachers plan exactly what knowledge and skills your child needs to learn in every lesson.
Step-by-Step Learning: We use guides called Progression Maps. These make sure that learning grows steadily over time.
Building Knowledge: Every lesson connects to the next one. What your child learns today helps them with what they will learn tomorrow.
Fun Lessons: Our teachers bring these plans to life. We make lessons exciting so children stay curious and remember what they learn.
This page is growing and being updated all the time, to reflect the richness and breadth of the learning at KRIII.
If you'd like further information, please speak to your child's teacher or get in touch with us at school and we'll be very happy to help.
If your child doesn't come to King Richards yet and you'd like more information about the curriculum, please get in touch to arrange a phone conversation or a school visit.
Learning
- In our fully inclusive school, we want a flexible curriculum for all of our children to support them in becoming independent learners with a real love for the enjoyment of learning.
- We want them to be creative and innovative with good communication skills – to be great listeners and confident speakers who can draw on a widening vocabulary as they move through our school.
- We want our children to have lots of opportunities to build friendships throughout and to learn to work well in different groups – pairs, threes, teams etc – by the time they reach the end of KS1.
- We want our children to be free thinkers and questioners, ready to evaluate and develop new ideas for themselves – all of this will help our children to be ‘future proof’ as they move on to new settings and opportunities.
- From their first days in our school, we want to give the children the opportunity to learn about taking risks in their learning adventures and to do this through outdoor learning whenever they can. We want them to understand that it’s ok to make mistakes, as these help us all to learn even more.
- To support all of this, we want the KRIII curriculum to draw on a wider range of topics that include lots of life experiences, trips and ‘wow events’, linking closely to the rich and vibrant community that surrounds our school.

How we comply with our duties in the Equality Act 2010 and the Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations 2014 to make the curriculum accessible to pupils with SEND.
We are committed to having a balanced, diverse and fair curriculum. We believe that our pupils should be exposed to ideas and concepts that may challenge their understanding, to help ensure that pupils learn to become more accepting and inclusive of others. Challenging and controversial concepts will be delivered in a way that prevents discrimination and promotes inclusive attitudes.
We aim to give all pupils access to an age-appropriate curriculum, wherever possible. We make adaptations to the way we deliver this curriculum to help our children to understand key concepts.
