Curriculum intent
At Stedham Primary School, our curriculum is thoughtfully sequenced and ambitious, enabling children to build strong knowledge, rich vocabulary and understanding over time. Guided by our values, we challenge pupils to think deeply, make connections and grow in confidence, so they are well prepared for the next stage of their learning and for life beyond our school.
Religious education
Religious education (RE) is part of our curriculum for every year group. Parents and carers have the right to withdraw their child from all or part of RE. If you would like to discuss this, please contact the school office.
Whole school curriculum map
Our curriculum is carefully designed ensuring clear progression and coverage for all pupils. Each academic year is structured around six engaging whole‑school topics. These shared themes allow children of different ages to learn alongside one another, providing valuable opportunities for collaboration, discussion and shared experiences across the school.
To ensure our curriculum remains purposeful, relevant and responsive to the needs of our pupils, it is formally reviewed and evaluated on an annual basis.
(7th September 2026) Our Whole School Curriculum Map for 2026–2027 will be uploaded to the website very soon.
