Curriculum Policies at Woodcroft

The National Curriculum provides pupils with an introduction to the essential knowledge that they need to be educated citizens.

All state schools like Woodcroft must offer a curriculum which is balanced and broadly based. It should promote the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of all pupils and prepare them for later life.

All state schools are also required to make provision for a daily act of collective worship and must teach religious education.

All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE).
