At Etherley Lane we don’t just deliver the National Curriculum – our teachers ensure that we have a carefully planned overview for each curriculum subject which arches across the whole school – ensuring that what we teach and how we teach it suits the needs of our learners and shows progression and helps the children to remember and make sense of their learning. At Etherley Lane, we teach each subject in its own right – we don’t try to make links between subjects unless the links are purposeful to our learning.
We plan each of our subjects individually, ensuring the what we teach has a balance to enable children to develop skills and knowledge. Where possible, we include visits and new experiences for our children to help them to have a firm base for their learning and to help them remember important information in the future.
At present our primary school curriculum is divided into three stages:
- Early Years Foundation Stage- for children of ages below five years
- Key Stage 1 – for children from five to seven years
- Key Stage 2 – for children from seven to eleven years
If you would like to find out further information about our school curriculum please make an appointment to speak to a member of our leadership team.

Assessment
Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

We encourage parents/carers to work in partnership with us to ensure that all children reach their full potential during their time with us. For more information, please visit the SEND section of our website. If you have any questions about SEND provision please contact the SENCo, Mrs. Coxon, or speak to your child’s class teacher.
Teaching and resources are adapted to meet the needs of all pupils. A wide range of intervention programmes can be utilised by staff to support pupils with SEND to ensure that they make progress. School staff liaise with outside agencies and continue to monitor and evaluated the impact of interventions and support.
