For the wider curriculum to be at the heart of what we do at Filton Avenue
For all learners to have a rich curriculum that offers them a breadth of study
For all learners to have the opportunity to investigate and become independent: to have the abilities and tools to seek out information and answers

States of Being

7. Knowledge Organisers
These will be used to frame the knowledge that each child is meant to know by the end of an enquiry. This is an example of a Year 3 knowledge organiser.

Enterprise – 3 weeks
Traditionally, curriculum topics have run for a term – some are 5 or 6 weeks, others are 7 or 8 weeks – and have been designed to fit the calendar. The new enquiries will run for as long or as short a time as they need. For example, in Term 2 we will have two enquiries.
