Frodsham Manor House Primary School

Our Curriculum

At Frodsham Manor House Primary School we offer a curriculum which is broad and balanced and which builds on the knowledge, understanding and skills of all children, whatever their starting points, as they progress through each Key Stage. The curriculum incorporates the statutory requirements of the National Curriculum (2014) alongside other experiences and opportunities which enrich and broaden the horizon of our children. 

The National Curriculum subjects are English, Maths, Science, History, Geography, Religion and World Views, Art and Design, Music, Computing, Design and Technology, Physical Education, PSHRE and MFL in KS2.

Our intent:

• To nurture and develop well-rounded, curious, capable and empathetic individuals
• To give children the skills, knowledge and attitude to lead a rich and fulfilling life

The design and implementation of our curriculum consists of:

• The National Curriculum core and foundation subjects
• Religion and World Views (Religious Education) according to the Cheshire West Agreed Syllabus
• PSHE and Citizenship
