The Whitgreave Wheels
This consists of three curriculum drivers that underpin our curriculum, in line with our school’s vision and aims, therefore responding to the particular needs of the community. They are Pupil Power, Community and Knowledge of the World
Clear curriculum maps
Each year group ensure that each teacher has clarity as to what to cover, in addition to ensuring progression. The curriculum is taught in blocks, in order to ensure that learning is more focussed and that time is spent aspiring to develop a depth of understanding

These are placed throughout the academic year, in order to further enhance teaching and learning within the curriculum. These include ‘World Book Week’ & ‘British Science Week’ which also includes a parental engagement event
Pupil Power Passports
