‘CHPA curriculum equips pupils with the academic and social skills for their current and future life.’
Charnock Hall Primary Academy aims to deliver a 21st century curriculum that inspires and challenges all of our pupils, staff and parents. It promotes the intellectual development of our pupils by equipping them with the knowledge and skills to develop their understanding of the world around them and to develop key learning dispositions that will prepare our pupils for the next stage in their learning journey.
We offer depth of the curriculum, allowing pupils to learn well and use what they have learnt in a range of contexts. In an ever shifting global cultural climate, CHPA aims to ensure that the curriculum is current, relevant and engaging to the pupils it serves, taking account of British values of democracy, tolerance, mutual respect, individual liberty, protected characteristics and our local school community.
Computing covers the computer science aspects of National Curriculum as well as digital literacy, online safety, computer networks and data and information. This is generally taught as a separate subject using the Teach Computing scheme from the National Centre for Computing Education. Other elements of the wider ICT curriculum, will be taught alongside other curriculum areas, as a part of theme work. This includes Digital Publication and Presentation, Digital Research, Data Handling and the use of Digital Media.
