Welcome to the learning section of our school website. Here you will find information about what children learn in each year group, along with key details about each subject across our curriculum.

At Wilson Primary School, we aim for our children to develop a broad and rich body of knowledge, alongside the skills needed to apply this learning confidently in the wider world. For several of our foundation subjects, we use Kapow resources to enhance and support our curriculum offer, ensuring high‑quality, well‑structured learning experiences.

We are proud of our curriculum, and our children speak enthusiastically about the subjects they study:

• “We love them [music lessons], we can show our creativity!” – Year 3 pupil
• “My final design was great – I had to combine two as I couldn’t choose.” (Design Technology) – Year 4 pupil

Our New Teaching & Learning Strategies Booklet

We are pleased to introduce our new Teaching and Learning Strategies booklet, which outlines the evidence-informed approaches used consistently across the school. These strategies—such as Cold Calling, Show Me Boards, Think‑Pair‑Share, probing questions, and structured feedback—help ensure that every pupil is actively engaged, supported, and challenged in their learning. The booklet also explains how our practice is shaped by educational research, including cognitive load theory, explicit teaching, and formative assessment. By sharing this resource with our community, we hope to provide greater transparency about how we teach and how we support pupils to make sustained, meaningful progress.
