Curriculum
"Everyone strives to be their very best"
The Curriculum followed by each class appears below - but do look at the individual class pages too. If you require further details about any element of our curriculum please ask your child's class teacher.
At Longtown, we use a two-year cycle across the curriculum to accommodate our mixed-age group classes (Cycle A and Cycle B). For a quick overview of the subjects children will be learning about across the curriculum in each class each half-term, please refer to the topic webs below.
KS1 refers to Years 1 and Year 2; Lower KS2 refers to Years 3 and 4; Upper KS2 refers to Years 5 and 6.

Above all we want our children to enjoy their time at school and we always have in mind that a happy child is a learning child.
