Appleton Thorn Primary School

It is described in the current Ofsted inspection framework as:

• the school’s curriculum extends beyond the academic, technical or vocational. It provides for learners’ broader development, enabling them to develop and discover their interests and talents
• the curriculum and the school’s wider work support learners to develop their character – including their resilience, confidence and independence – and help them know how to keep physically and mentally healthy
• at each stage of education, the school prepares learners for future success in their next steps
• the school prepares learners for life in modern Britain by:
  • equipping them to be responsible, respectful, active citizens who contribute positively to society
  • developing their understanding of fundamental British values and appreciation of diversity
  • celebrating what we have in common and promoting respect for the different protected characteristics as defined in law.
