Curriculum Overview
We have devised our curriculum to be sequential and build on the skills and knowledge that the children already have from previous learning. At Tymberwood we feel that it is important that learning is layered in a way that it ensures gaps are not created and where new learning can visibly link on to prior learning to strengthen the working memory. To support with this, each lesson starts with a 'reactivate' - this is the prior learning that they are 'reactivating' to build on to in the lesson.
