In Year 1 the curriculum is taught around topics and themes. This ensures that learning is practical, meaningful and links together. Classrooms are large so children have plenty of room for role play and practical activities.
Maths, English and Phonics are all taught as separate lessons to ensure children gain the skills needed to make the best possible progress, although we link English to our topics wherever possible.
