Eastlea Curriculum

The Eastlea curriculum and progressions of skills are always being further developed and refined.  
A curriculum outline for each year group is included below.
 
Reading
We teach early reading/Phonics using Read Write Inc.  This starts with phonological awareness in Nursery and phonics skills are further developed throughout the rest of Early Years and KS1.
Our pupils love to read and we have lots of whole school initiatives to encourage a love of books, e.g. our annual reading challenge, shared reading with other classes, promotion of the libraries summer reading challenge etc.
 
 
Additional summary documents outlining further details about our curriculum are also included:
 
  • There is a separate outline of our Health and Wellbeing (PSHE) curriculum fior which we follow the Pol Ed curriculum overview. 
  • A two year plan for RE using the new Northumberland recommended syllabus (2026-2027 is Year A).  N.B.  Parents/carers should discuss with the Head Teacher if they wish their child to be withdrawn from all or part of the RE curriculum.
