Curriculum

At Veritas Primary Academy, our curriculum is designed to give every child a strong foundation for learning, confidence, and future success. We provide a clear, well-sequenced set of knowledge and skills across subjects, ensuring that children build understanding step by step as they move through the school. Our approach supports a positive learning culture where children are encouraged to ask questions, make progress over time, and take pride in their achievements.

In English, children develop reading fluency and comprehension alongside writing skills that reflect purpose and audience. We focus on phonics and vocabulary, so pupils can read accurately and with understanding, and we teach grammar and spelling to strengthen their written work. In mathematics, pupils learn through a structured progression that builds conceptual understanding, fluency in number, and the ability to apply skills to reasoning and problem-solving. Across the curriculum, we plan lessons that help pupils remember key learning and use it confidently in new contexts.

Our curriculum also includes science, computing, history, geography, art, design and technology, music, and physical education, taught with ambition and relevance to the wider world. We ensure that subject learning is carefully mapped so that concepts are revisited and deepened, supporting long-term retention. Alongside this, we place importance on personal development, including respectful relationships, healthy lifestyles, and opportunities for pupils to develop resilience and teamwork.
