WIDER CURRICULUM

Here at Phoenix Academy we have adapted the Cornerstones Curriculum to meet the needs of our pupils.

All classes work on the same topic for half a term, differentiated accordingly, to create unity and a sense of community.  Opportunities are created through assemblies to share and celebrate achievements across the Academy.

Pupils will have their work on display in their classroom and our website gallery is regularly updated with topic work etc… please take a look!

Pupils at Phoenix Academy enjoy a broad and balanced curriculum, not only to learn about the wider world but also to enrich their own cultural capital.

Visits are regularly planned and where possible organised to embed the topic enrichment and allow pupils to gain a greater understanding about the topics they have covered.

We appreciate our pupil’s achievements and recognise their struggles.  Through a supportive approach our pupils are encouraged to foster new-found skills.

Cornerstones is a nationally recognised approach which delivers outstanding learning opportunities for all children. Please click on the following link for more information relating to Cornerstones:  https://cornerstoneseducation.co.uk/why-cornerstones/

How it works?

Children progress through four stages of learning (Engage, Develop, Innovate and Express).
