                           Curriculum
                           2020 -2021
Our Recovery Curriculum is designed to sensitively and efficiently promote the
mental well-being and emotional resilience of our pupils, and to reignite a sense
of community learning. Our aim is to ensure that pupils are re-immersed into our
school community again, so that they can continue to embrace and enjoy their
learning experiences in a secure, stable and familiar environment. We intend to
raise aspirations by reconnecting to our core school values of ambition, empathy,
creativity, resilience, respect and courage, and through ensuring that our pupils
have a secure sense of self.
Our curriculum is based upon an integrated thematic approach which links to
the wider world – hence the importance placed upon ‘cultural capital’. We will
motivate and inspire our pupils through our innovative and creative curriculum
and continuously provide them with opportunities to grow as learners and
experience success. We are excited to share with our children the transformative
nature of education and the endless possibilities that exist within it and through it.

                                              Aims and Objectives

At Dog Kennel Hill we aim to provide a rich and meaningful learning experience for all our children which
will prepare them for an ever-changing world. In designing our curriculum, we aim to not only maximise
the natural and man-made resources around us but to build directly on the experience, needs, and
interests of our children as well as the expertise of the staff. We have also taken into account the cultural
and social diversity of all our pupils therefore creating opportunities for all to succeed. This is a curriculum
for us by us. Our curriculum is planned and sequenced so that new knowledge and skills build on what
has been taught before and towards clearly defined end points.

We aim to equip pupils with the knowledge and cultural capital they need to succeed in life. Our
understanding of ‘knowledge and cultural capital’ is derived from the following wording in the national
curriculum: ‘It is the essential knowledge that pupils need to be educated citizens, introducing them to
the best that has been thought and said and helping to engender an appreciation of human creativity
and achievement’.

We actively promote the use of the outdoors as a learning environment not just for PE and the Early Years
but for all children in all subjects. We are fortunate to have access to local nature areas such as Lettsom
Gardens, where we have an allotment and Forest School for the EYFS. We also have a community space
at DKHAP (Dog Kennel Hill Adventure Playground) and our own wildlife area at school.
Our curriculum is based on the 2014 National Curriculum Framework.

Curriculum Intent

We provide a rich, relevant and engaging curriculum, ensuring all pupils:
  ● Are challenged to achieve the very best they can and make progress in line with, or above,
    national expectations
  ● Develop enquiring minds and a balanced outlook on life
  ● Build upon knowledge and deepen understanding
  ● Are taught with context and purpose
  ● Are collaborative, resilient learners with a strong sense of personal choice and responsibility who
    enjoy and value their learning
  ● Grow into confident and responsible young people who can shape their own views and explain
    their opinions embodying the River Hill Federation Values

Curriculum Implementation

We do this through:
  ● Creating an aspirational high achievement culture
  ● Ensuring progression, context and purpose in our curriculum content, underpinned with specific
    knowledge (outlined by knowledge organisers and curriculum maps)
  ● Providing a smooth transition between phases by allowing staff the unique opportunity to learn and
    observe across phases, building relationships and developing knowledge and strengthening skills.
  ● Providing extensive enrichment opportunities to raise cultural capital
  ● Valuing creativity and learning within and beyond the classroom, taking full advantage of the
    wealth of art and culture East Dulwich and London has to offer
  ● Collaboration and competition with other educational establishments and exposure to a range of
    workshops, guest speakers, members of the community and parents

             2

We provide diverse and exciting experiences, which are taught with context and purpose. From EYFS
to Year 6 our curriculum is thematic, with room for cross-curricular teaching as well as discrete teaching
of particular subjects and units.

Curriculum Impact

We measure the impact of our curriculum by:
   ● Reflecting on the standards achieved against planned outcomes
   ● Celebrating the learning at the end of each topic, where children demonstrate the knowledge
      they have gained
   ● Sampling children's learning across the school to demonstrate learning
   ● Pupil discussions with teachers and Senior Leaders about their learning
   ● Annual tracking of standards across the curriculum
We use formative strategies such as using feedback to inform planning, as well as summative
assessments at set times during the year. We benchmark against national standards in a variety of ways
including; marking and moderating across the school, Local Authority EYFS consultant visits, English
consultant support, external Maths Mastery visits in KS1 and Year 3, and frequent moderation activities
with colleagues from across the federation.
Pupil progress is monitored by way of pupil progress meetings, where results of summative assessments
allow us to identify and address barriers to learning of individuals and groups.
Pupil and parent voice are crucial tools in informing us what we are doing right, and what we need to
develop.

End of year outcomes show that DKH children achieve highly, embody our core values and have a
deep knowledge and understanding of our curriculum.

Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum
Reception and Nursery will spend some of the Autumn Term settling in and getting used to their new learning
environments. This forms part of the transition period. During this time teachers are observing, assessing and screening
their children in the areas of learning. Activities are set up both indoors and out to support all areas of the EYFS
curriculum.
The Prime (in bold) and Specific Areas are:
   ● Personal, Social and Emotional development
   ● Physical development
   ● Communication and Language development
   ● English
   ● Maths
   ● Understanding the World
   ● Expressive Arts and Design
Nursery will be working through Letters and Sounds phonic phases 1 and 2 which focus on distinguishing sounds and
identifying sounds. In Reception the focus is more on phases 3 and 5 which are phonemes (minimum unit of sound) and
making words. The Dandelion readers, which are sent home with the children along with a book of the child’s choice,
heavily support our phonic programme.

By the Spring Term a topic-based approach is fully embedded. Planning is informed heavily by the previous assessments
of where the children are in the prime areas (their needs), the interests of the children and the requirements of the
curriculum.

In the Summer Term, teachers are gathering evidence to support their final judgements for the Early Years Foundation
stage profiles. The expectation is that most children will achieve a Good Level of Development.
By the end of the foundation stage children are expected to
    ● Write simple sentences with plausible phonetic spellings- children who should exceed the good level of
       development should be writing some compound words
    ● Read simple sentences relying on phonics and contextual cues

             4

● Work with numbers to at least 20
