Curriculum Overview

At Maltings Academy we are committed to consistently deliver excellence, in every lesson, every day by creating a calm, purposeful learning environment where students study a relevant curriculum that enables all students to succeed, building skills and knowledge for future life. Our aim is to provide all students with a demanding and equitable curriculum, which is both academic and creative that not only enables them to achieve 1st rate qualifications but also develops in each young person the characteristics to succeed in all aspects of life, by building ambition, pride, resilience, and respect in all learning, experiences, and opportunities provided by the Academy. This is secured through high quality teaching and learning. 

We are committed to consistently deliver excellence that enables all our students to succeed in every aspect of life through:

• Creating a stimulating learning environment through a well planned curriculum. Developing knowledge led schemes of learning that are challenging and coherent, designed to ensure that all students achieve broad, deep, subject expertise.

• Ensuring students acquire substantive, disciplinary and hinterland knowledge and remember more with extended deliberate practice that is well planned, so that they can learn more complex content and apply the skills and understanding they have gained.

• Enabling all students to become confident and resilient while also developing their creativity and talents to the full. 

• A rich learning experience is enhanced through the creative delivery of literacy, oracy, numeracy, and cultural enrichment. All students develop a rich cultural capital in all areas of the curriculum, and are strengthened by exposure to wide reading opportunities which are embedded in the curriculum.

• Respect is one of the core values of our Academy. Students are helped to know and understand that it is expected that a culture where mutual respect, courtesy, tolerance and diversity are without question embraced in all aspects of the curriculum.
