Curriculum

At Middlewich Primary School, we offer a broad, balanced, and engaging curriculum that supports every child’s development from the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) through to Year 6. In the EYFS, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage framework and our focus is on nurturing curiosity and a love of learning through play-based, child-centered experiences that build strong foundations in communication, language, literacy, numeracy, and personal development. As children progress into Key Stages 1 and 2, our curriculum is carefully structured to promote academic excellence, creativity, and critical thinking across all subjects, including English, mathematics, science, humanities, the arts, and physical education. We place a strong emphasis on developing the whole child, fostering confidence, resilience, and a lifelong enthusiasm for learning, while ensuring that all pupils are well-prepared for the next stage of their educational journey. Lessons are enhanced with educational trips, visitors into school, community projects and opportunities to learn beyond the classroom.
