At the heart of our school you will find our children, and every member of staff has the very highest of aspirations for each and every one. It is our responsibility to spark curiosity in each child, to ignite a passion for learning that will remain with them throughout their lives. <\/p>\n
Sherborne CofE Primary School is unique: unique in its setting, unique in its philosophy and unique in its approach. <\/p>\n
Because every child is unique, our school has created a curriculum which is designed to fuel their interests and engage every learner. Through listening to feedback from children, parents and carers, the curriculum offered at Sherborne is like no other school: it has not been designed to enable children to pass a test or experience a narrow range of subjects so that this may happen. It has been created first and foremost so that children may have fun and enjoy learning. Our curriculum is matched to the National Curriculum which mainstream schools in England must follow, but it is the \u2018special extras\u2019 and our expert delivery which makes what we do unique.<\/p>\n
It is the fundamental belief of all members of staff that every child has the ability to learn and every child has the right to learn. It is our job as professionals to find out how each child learns best and make provision for these preferences. Central to this philosophy is the happiness of the children. Staff take time to listen to each child and find out about their interests and hobbies, as well as listening when they feel sad. We value the children in our care and they know they are liked and wanted at our school. It is when this happens that real learning takes place.<\/p>\n
This curriculum is not the end: it is the starting point upon which the school\u2019s staff breathe life and sprinkle it with magic. It is this combination of a unique curriculum and inspirational teaching which makes learning at Sherborne irresistible.<\/p>\nSherborne Staff 1.
