At Sprowston Junior, we provide children with a progressive, knowledge-based curriculum. Children are exposed to, and use, a rich vocabulary which builds through each subject. This gives children opportunities to develop their language and use technical terms accurately.

Our curriculum is shaped for, and by, the children of Sprowston Junior and includes opportunities to learn about local history, geography and the community that we are part of. As a school with mixed-age classes, learning is carefully planned through a two-year rolling curriculum, ensuring full coverage of the National Curriculum and progression of knowledge and skills across both years. This approach enables all children to access a broad, balanced and engaging curriculum.

Every subject is planned with children's needs at the centre, and we aim to ensure they develop the skills and knowledge needed to thrive across all curriculum areas.

Here is an overview of the topics being taught throughout the year. It will give you a flavour of the learning journey that your child will be on this year. You will also find the knowledge organisers (see the link to the right of this page) that we use to support learning and deepen understanding in a range of subjects.

Please see the document below for an overview of the Year 5/6 curriculum this year.
