Intent

At St Joseph’s, our curriculum is designed to provide a broad, balanced, and ambitious body of knowledge that nurtures the whole child. Rooted in our mission to live out The Way, The Truth, The Life, our curriculum reflects a shared vision among staff to develop pupils’ academic, spiritual, moral, and social understanding. It aims to inspire curiosity, deepen faith, and equip children with the knowledge and skills they need to flourish in life and learning.

Implementation

Our curriculum is carefully planned and sequenced to ensure a logical progression of knowledge and skills across all year groups. Teachers work collaboratively to design and deliver engaging, inclusive lessons that build on prior learning and respond to the needs of all learners. Through a rich variety of subjects and experiences, we ensure that children encounter a wide range of perspectives and opportunities, all underpinned by Gospel values and our Catholic ethos.

Impact

Through our carefully structured and cohesive curriculum, pupils at St Joseph’s grow into confident, compassionate, and reflective individuals who embody the values of The Way, The Truth, The Life. They achieve strong academic outcomes, are well-prepared for the next stage of their education, and demonstrate a deep-rooted understanding of their faith and the wider world. Our children leave St Joseph’s as lifelong learners, equipped to make meaningful and positive contributions to society.
