History

“We are not makers of history. We are made by history.”

Martin Luther King Jr.

At Parc Eglos, our curriculum is rooted in the National Curriculum and brought to life through the CUSP curriculum materials. This provides a knowledge-rich, well-sequenced curriculum that enables all pupils to know more, remember more and do more over time.

A central feature of our approach is the direct teaching of key vocabulary. In every subject, new and ambitious vocabulary is introduced explicitly, modelled and revisited so that pupils gain confidence in using it accurately.

Our curriculum is connected to our reading lessons where possible, ensuring that high-quality texts enrich pupils’ subject knowledge and deepen their cultural understanding. Carefully chosen texts are deliberately planned, allowing pupils to build meaning, make connections and consolidate their knowledge through reading.

Through CUSP, our pupils enjoy a curriculum that is clear, carefully planned and engaging. Our approach helps them build knowledge step by step, talk about their learning with confidence, and grow as curious, confident learners who are ready for the next stage of their education.
