The Curriculum at West Jesmond Primary School
At West Jesmond Primary School we provide each pupil with a rich and varied curriculum, delivered through stimulating and memorable learning opportunities, designed to meet the requirements as set out in the current National Curriculum: https://www.education.gov.uk/publications/eOrderingDownload/QCA-99-457.pdf
In order to ensure your child develops and secures the necessary skills and knowledge for life- long learning, a strong foundation in Mathematics and English can be found at the heart of all our curriculum activities. Detailed overviews of learning for each year group in Mathematics and English can be found by using the links below:

Built around these core skills, is the wider curriculum; stimulating, varied, challenging, localised, environmentally aware and most of all exciting for our children.
Enhancing this curriculum, throughout the course of each school year, are regular field excursions and residential trips to regional galleries, local attractions and places of interest such as Bede’s World, Beamish Museum and Hadrian’s Wall. Children in Year 6 attend a residential trip to Robin Wood in the Tyne Valley.
