Curriculum at Fairfields

We have created a unique curriculum for children in our school. It is based on a challenging book as a driver. The teachers in the school have taken the National Curriculum and have made links between subjects like history and geography, science and art. 

Our aim is to create a curriculum that is fresh and relevant. We want to inspire and challenge children; encouraging them to question and explore and become active learners.
