The Wonderful World Curriculum

At Stourfield Junior School, we aim to provide a stimulating, ambitious curriculum based around half-termly focuses, where appropriate. Each subject is taught descretely, however meaningful links with other subjects are made where purposeful. Some topics incorporate a trip or a drama workshop.

As part of a fortnightly enrichment curriculum offer (Wider World Day), subjects such as; PSHE, RE, Spanish and Music are taught discretely by specialists teachers.

Reading and Writing Across the Curriculum

We believe that children write best when they are inspired by the content and when they have real outcomes for their writing. We therefore aim to write across the curriculum and incorporate both purposeful reading and writing opportunities into other subject areas.

Trips and Residential Visits

At Stourfield Juniors, we aim to bring the children’s learning to life by taking the children on as many trips as we can. We place enormous value on enriching the children’s learning experiences through visits, which usually take place each half term.

Here are some examples:

Year 3 – Scaplen’s Court

Year 4 – Hooke Court Residential visit 3 days

Year 5 – Marwell Zoo

Year 6 – Hengistbury Head and Bushcraft Residential Visit.
