A Curriculum Overview

Children in the Reception Class follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework.

In Key Stages 1 & 2 St. Anthony's School uses the National Curriculum as a baseline but offers a great deal more.

We aim to meet the needs of all children, regardless of background or ability, in a manner that stimulates, challenges, excites and encourages each individual.

Children from the Reception Class to Year 6 receive swimming lessons at a local pool with qualified teachers and also attend the Forest of Dean Gymnastic Centre where fully qualified coaches provide instruction.

Throughout the School we build on pupils' strengths, interests and experiences and encourage them to learn and work independently and collaboratively. By providing such a programme of learning the pupils are able to apply their knowledge and understanding to make informed judgments and decisions.
