Our Curriculum INTENT:

At Lancaster Christ Church, we are committed to providing a broad and balanced curriculum in which children explore a range of subjects, thus developing a variety of knowledge, skills and interests which they can apply to opportunities, responsibilities and experiences in later life.

We value the individuality of our children and their various curriculum strengths and interests. As a school, we aim to provide opportunities for children to build upon these to become the best that they can be.

We are proud of our varied demographic and ensure that all children have opportunities to be successful, valuing the range of ways in which this success can be achieved.

Therefore, whilst encouraging children to 'Have faith...in yourself, in others and in God', we have designed our curriculum which enables all children to flourish as individuals. This is summarised through our curriculum vision statement:

“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”

1 Peter 4:10

"Leaders have developed an exciting and ambitious curriculum at Christ Church Primary School."

At Lancaster Christ Church, we use Rhino Readers as our primary reading scheme. Reading books connect closely to the phonics knowledge pupils are taught when they are learning to read.

At Lancaster Christ Church, phonics is taught using Twinkl Phonics. This is a DfE validated scheme.
