At Framwellgate Moor Primary School, we provide high quality teaching for all children. Teachers have excellent subject knowledge and skills in their coordinating specialisms and support each other in upskilling and securing a high standard of subject knowledge to challenge and engage learners. Professional Development/training and support is outstanding at FMPS with staff having a range of opportunities to develop personal skills further. The school supports a significant number of pupils requiring additional support including pupils who learn English as an additional language.
Teachers are conscientious and are keen to engage in professional development and strive for personal improvement to ensure maximum progress for their pupils.

Curriculum Intent
Curriculum Maps for each year group identify the topics taught in each subject over the course of the academic year, and to add detail to this, a termly newsletter is written by each Class Teacher to explain the topic content for each subject and describes how parents can support the topic interests at home.
Curriculum Subjects
Please view our Curriculum Content section and click the subject for more information.
Examples of our diverse and creative curriculum can be found on the enrichment and enjoyment section of this website.
The Long Term planning consists of an overview of all topics taught across school from Y1 to Y6. Medium Term Plans are used as a basis to a progressive approach to learning new knowledge. Skills in Geog/History/Science/French/Music/PE/Computing/ Planning are developed year on year and new enrichment opportunities are provided so that children know more and remember more whilst enjoying their learning.
These plans identify intentions for learning, progression of skills and key knowledge to be taught within each subject area. Carefully planned lessons and skilled teaching ensures pupils are motivated and each lesson, or sequence of lessons, begins with a recap of previous learning in order to support pupils in their recall of key skills and knowledge.
Displays remind pupils of learning and are often ‘Working Walls’ or work in progress. In Maths and English there are Learning Walls in each class to support key knowledge and non-negotiables.
Work is differentiated to meet the needs of the pupils and extension activities challenge learners at all levels.
All plans are used as dynamic documents to ensure Assessment for Learning on a continual basis, in addition to subject specific assessment grids and progression documents. Summative tests, along with teacher assessments ensure accurate judgements of the impact of learning and progression.
Coordinators are highly effective in supporting the needs of the teachers and ensuring that the Teaching and Learning is effective and that attainment is high and progression clear across the keystages in their subject from Nursery to Year 6.
