Dream more, learn more, do more, become more.

Our curriculum intent is to provide an exciting and ambitious, creative curriculum that meets the needs of every child to prepare them to thrive in our rapidly changing world. Our curriculum is rich, exciting, broad, balanced, and accessible for all.

We aim to create learners whose brilliance is discovered, who feel and treat others as equals, learn effectively with resilience, are inspired, are enthusiastic, and have vision: "That every child matters as a citizen of the world and as an individual."

These are our school values which underpin each part of our curriculum. Our curriculum is coherently planned and sequenced and successfully adapted for all pupil's including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.


We believe all children can achieve.

We continue to develop and review our curriculum, which is driven by exciting topics, and texts, that are meaningful and relevant to our learners and that foster a love of learning.  Our broad and balanced curriculum enables all children to access a diverse range of experiences to enhance their learning, where subject leads have planned and sequenced their subject curriculum to build on each child’s prior knowledge, developing and broadening their learning.

Knowledge and skills are purposefully structured to enable progression across each subject, year on year, whilst also allowing children to apply their learning in an interconnected way across subjects.

Our curriculum is made exceptional by the creativity in which it is delivered. At Wallace Fields Juniors, we use every opportunity we can to enrich our curriculum through exciting experiences such as great topics, experimentation and exploration, workshops, special events, residential visits and school trips.
