Intent

“An intelligent heart acquires knowledge and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.” (Proverb 18:15)

English provides pupils with the fundamental skills to succeed in an ever changing world. Through our broad and engaging curriculum, pupils will journey through other cultures and time periods, developing empathy and understanding of different perspectives. Pupils will become critical readers and thinkers who communicate effectively through the spoken and written word. Igniting imagination and enthusing pupils through a love of literature will allow them to develop confidence in self-expression so that they can aspire to fulfil their God given gifts.
