Curriculum Overview

 

At Jump Primary School we are commited to providing a creative curriculum which enables children to learn through exciting and stimulating topics.

 

The curriculum delivered is broadly based taking due account of the National Curriculum and Barnsley L.A.'s Entitlement Curriculum. We believe in each child working to their ability so that the more able are not held back whilst the least able are not confronted with tasks beyond their capabilities and so become demoralised by repeated failure. We ensure that we cater for lots of different learning styles and encourage our children to regularly participate in activities beyond the curriculum.

 

For our aims relating to specific subject areas, please see the school prospectus.
