The Raedwald Trust pays high regard to organising pupil’s learning experiences: curriculum design always responds to individual learner’s needs and curriculum choices are regularly reviewed, with all stakeholders, so that we can be confident we are providing an exceptional learning experience that supports pupils in the next step of their academic journey. Within each academy there is a curriculum that is based on the appropriate age/stage of the pupil on admission.
A key aspect of the identity of the Raedwald Trust curriculum is the Assessment Centre, which all pupils on all pathways access. Often pupils supported by the Raedwald Trust have had fragmented educational experiences and therefore the main premise of this is to gain an insight into their entry point to the proposed curriculum offer and a deeper understanding of any gaps within their foundational knowledge in key areas, such as reading fluency. Our highly personalised and flexible approach is all built on a curriculum infrastructure that is based on programmes of study that are derived from the National Curriculum, curriculum overviews then sequence that content so that pupils secure the required knowledge and skills for their next step. Learning at the Raedwald Trust is framed by two key questions:
- What is the specific intention of the chosen pathway?
- What is the ongoing impact of the chosen pathway?
Against these measures, our learners thrive in an environment of high expectation.
