Our curriculum is driven by our REACH values and by our desire to prepare our learners of today for tomorrow's world. We aim to inspire and motivate pupils while providing for their academic, moral, physical, creative, personal and social development. We have a bespoke curriuculum here at Chalkwell Hall Infant School where we develop both the children's knowledge and character.

Throughout Key Stage 1, we use recognise the importance of making links across the curriculum. Lessons are designed to ensure pupils acquire knowledge and skills and have opportunities to retrieve their knowledge, practise and apply their skills in a range of contexts and commit their learning to the long term memory. We encourage co-operative work, talk, discussion and enjoyment as vehicles for learning in all subjects.

The Covid-19 pandemic was as an excellent opportunity to evaluate what was important to us and what our priorities were. These priorities continue to shape our offer and approach at Chalkwell and are centered around our REACH values, the children's (and staff) wellbeing and by ensuring that children develop their basic skills as well as access a broad and balanced curriculum in order to prepare them tomorrow's world.
