Rich Curriculum

At Shaftesbury Park Primary School, we pride ourselves on offering a dynamic curriculum that inspires curiosity and creativity in every pupil. We believe learning is most impactful when it is hands-on, engaging, and deeply connected to real-world experiences. Our innovative approach ensures that students actively participate in their educational journey, transforming abstract concepts into tangible accomplishments.

An example of our hands-on learning is the Year 6 exploration of Ancient Greece. Pupils delved into the art, culture, and science of the era by creating their own Greek perfumes, an exciting blend of history and chemistry. These handcrafted scents were stored in beautiful Greek pottery they designed themselves, weaving art and history together in an unforgettable project. This unique activity not only enhanced their understanding but also fostered creativity and practical problem-solving skills.

Beyond the classroom, our curriculum extends to enriching educational trips that bring learning to life. Visits to iconic institutions such as the Science Museum and History Museum immerse pupils in discovery and exploration, complementing their studies with real-world insights. At the Tate Gallery, our students are exposed to extraordinary works of art, igniting their passion for creativity and critical thinking. For language learners, our trips to France provide a unique opportunity to practice French skills while experiencing the country's vibrant culture first hand.

Every aspect of the Shaftesbury Park curriculum is designed to nurture holistic development, fostering academic excellence alongside creativity, collaboration, and curiosity. With a blend of immersive classroom projects and inspirational field trips, we ensure our pupils develop a love for learning that lasts a lifetime. At Shaftesbury Park Primary School, education is not just about acquiring knowledge—it’s about creating memorable experiences that shape the future. Here, every child is empowered to explore, innovate, and grow into confident individuals ready to thrive in the wider world. At Shaftesbury Park, we develop children who think about their world, enlarge their world and change their world.
