Nanpean's Knowledge Engaged Curriculum

Nanpean's Knowledge Engaged Curriculum

A Knowledge-engaged approach intends to make links between subjects within the Curriculum, where appropriate, so that learning becomes relevant, meaningful and contextual to the children through the collation of knowledge and facts that link to, and underpin, skill development.

Knowledge is a focus at Nanpean School and we use Knowledge Organisers which cover content and key facts and skills for each subject. These enable children to progressively build on their learning, cumulatively developing knowledge and skills. Our Knowledge-engaged Curriculum:

  • Fosters links between learning and the community and local area;
  • is Aspirational through immersing children in knowledge and experience of Careers for their future;
  • Builds and promotes a lifelong love of learning through the application of knowledge and skills, so that they are ready for the next steps of their education and life.
