At Light Years School, we ensure our curriculum is immersive by having overarching Curriculum Connection Drivers for each half-term (through a topic approach). Our curriculum is based on an ‘interconnected curriculum approach’ which relies on strategic mapping that builds a well-sequenced curriculum to develop understanding and strengthen schemata. Our curriculum is based on the theory that ‘without critical alignment all other curriculum areas will lack in purpose, vision and direction’ (Turner, 2023). Our aim is to ensure the children at Light Years understand that their learning is purposeful through having awe inspiring overarching drivers (topics) that capture imagination and inspire learning outcomes.
