The Junior School Our broad curriculum is based on the National Curriculum and the National Literacy and Numeracy Strategies... with added extras! Spread across the week, most pupils will have five P.E. lessons and two Music lessons with subject specialists.
There are opportunities to enjoy further sporting and musical activities in the many extra-curricular activities offered in school.
