Welcome

At Hoo St Werburgh Primary School our curriculum aims to create:

• A passion amongst our children for life-long learning
• Learning which is fully inclusive and accessible for all
• Learning which is relevant to our learners’ world and community
• Children who aspire to be the best they can be at everything they do
• These four aims, combined with our long-standing school values of courage, confidence, respect and belonging sit at the very core of our curriculum and ensure that our learning has a clear intent and purpose for the children in our school.

A fundamental part of the curriculum here at Hoo is helping children become more effective learners. It is our aim to equip children not only with the skills and knowledge to achieve at primary school but also the tools to become effective learners throughout their lives. This “learning toolkit” is created and developed using our character curriculum and aims to help children to ignite courage, encourage confidence, build respect and inspire a sense of belonging. Our teaching intent truly values the importance of a rigorous and stretching academic education combined with nurturing and fostering wider personal development leading to well-educated and rounded individuals ready for the next stage of their education.

Please take a look at our individual subject pages to find out about the Hoo Way of teaching each subject through the subject leaders’ intent, implementation and impact plan, as well as through some photographs showcasing our children enjoying their learning.

If you would like further details on our curriculum or how it is being implemented, then please do contact the school office, where we will be delighted to speak about the exciting changes we have made in more detail.
