Personalising our Curriculum through Personal Development

To enhance our curriculum and in addition to the National Curriculum, we also offer children the opportunity to unlock 6 key areas of personal development. These sessions aim to develop our sense of self, groups and community and are delivered across the year and are celebrated through our class NEPS Unlocks Big Books.
