Our Curriculum

At Purbrook Junior School, we offer an ambitious, inclusive, and engaging curriculum designed to inspire a love of learning and equip every child with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive. Our approach develops thinking skills, encourages curiosity, fosters resilience and aims to develop a love of reading, ensuring pupils become lifelong learners who can question, reflect, and think deeply.

Learning at Purbrook Junior is stimulating, and personalised to meet the needs of all pupils. Through carefully planned themes with stimulating text drivers, we deliver exciting learning opportunities in line with the statutory requirements of the 2014 KS2 National Curriculum. 

Our vision, “Dream Big…”, and our core values – Respect, Team, Achieve – drive everything we do and are the golden threads that are woven through each half-term theme. We embed British Values and promote spiritual, moral, social, and cultural development (SMSC) within our curriculum, preparing pupils for life in modern Britain.

We place a strong emphasis on ‘learning to learn’, nurturing a growth mindset and building resilient learners who embrace challenge. Our curriculum is designed to be broad, balanced, and ambitious, enabling every child to belong, thrive and achieve at Purbrook Junior School.
