THE FRIARY SCHOOL

In pursuing this, we appreciate we operate at the critical foundation stage of lives and we place this in the context of Marcus Garvey's (1887-1940) assessment that: "A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots." Our curriculum provides a contextualisation of our student's heritage and identity, their readiness to use these British values to underpin their thinking as they step onto a wider platform, and a moral compass as they negotiate their own, and others, challenges... To finalise, we are a school that believes that the curriculum is king. If children are doing courses they enjoy and can succeed at, and they benefit from a balance of support and challenge along the way, then much of the rest will take care of itself... Our school's curriculum underpins all that we do - each and every day - and embodies the high quality of education we offer to every student.
