Curriculum Intent: At Chellaston Junior School, we ask, “Why?”. Our curriculum is based upon developing enquiring minds.
Through our curriculum, we teach our pupils core knowledge, which then equips them with the ability to showcase their reasoning skills. We want our children to ask ‘why?’ and develop their independence and resilience to answer their own questions for themselves.
