As leaders, we may ask ourselves: how do we enable and empower all young people to get the very best out of their education, with a focus on genuine equity? How do we support all young people to develop positive self-identity, have broad horizons and experience success? The curriculum we construct and educational experiences we provide is one of the significant tools in bridging that disadvantage gap.
At HFL we understand the complexity in navigating curriculum choices and are available to support schools, leaders and teachers.
A carefully constructed, curated and sequenced curriculum is the bedrock of a school’s provision and it plays an essential and pivotal role as a key lever to close the disadvantage gap.
Alongside our foundation subjects training courses, we offer expert, tailored coaching for senior and subject leaders to support whole-school curriculum design that meets the individual needs of each school.
From personalised subject leader coaching to a subject review, bespoke staff meeting(s) or support with curriculum mapping, we can add significant value to the leadership and teaching of foundation subjects in primary schools.
We can help with:
-
Supporting subject leader/s to understand the role, what to focus on and actions to prioritise
-
Exploring and refining current curriculum mapping for a subject
-
Support in identifying key concepts that run through foundation subjects and underpin learning
-
Support in curating a curriculum that reflects a school’s individual needs
