A Vision for the Curriculum for Wales 2022 at Cefn Glas Infant School
Our vision for our curriculum involved all stakeholders, including parents, carers, staff and governors in the form of a questionnaire which was sent out to establish their views prior to meeting with all staff. Staff worked with children to discuss what makes Cefn Glas Infants School special and what they enjoy and want to learn. All views were taken into consideration and our vision was produced.
At Cefn Glas Infants School everyone counts and well-being is at the heart of everything we do in a caring and nurturing environment. Our vision for our exciting curriculum is rooted in Welsh values, culture and diversity, and we celebrate the achievements of all, both big and small! Our curriculum starts with the four purposes and has the development of Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Competency skills at its core, alongside setting firm foundations for children to be ambitious and successful learners. Our children learn best through authentic, kinaesthetic opportunities and activities which enable them to experience learning in a meaningful way that reflects their interests and needs and helps them to make sense of the world around them. Our curriculum will allow children to grow together, whilst building their knowledge and understanding through exciting and engaging topics that will capture their interest and stimulate their imagination. We aim to develop ownership and decision making through pupil voice, equipping children with the knowledge, skills and dispositions needed for future challenges as they continue learning for life.
Rights of the Child – Article 29 (goals of education)
Education must develop every child’s
personality, talents and abilities to the
full. It must encourage the child’s respect
for human rights, as well as respect
for their parents, their own and other
cultures, and the environment.
