HEARTS Academy Trust Curriculum

At Waterman Primary School, we follow the HEARTS Curriculum. Subject specialists and the most experienced teachers across all schools in the trust work collaboratively to develop termly medium-term plans. Termly planning is informed by the overall intent and themes of the HEARTS curriculum alongside following the specific knowledge children need to learn at each stage as outlined in our subject progression guides. 

Our subject leaders and class teachers use ongoing assessments to tailor the curriculum to meet the needs of and provide equity for all children at Waterman Primary School. There is also space in the curriculum for teachers to plan lessons to address misconceptions, practice retrieval and basic skills. 

We also acknowledge the unique settings and contexts of each school, so therefore, teachers make adaptions where needed to overcome barriers to learning that our specific to our school context.
