Curriculum

We want the children in our school to be curious and enthusiastic students so that they develop a life-long love of learning that sets them up well for success in the next stage of their education (and beyond).

At Laleham Church of England School we want to be an outward-looking community because we believe that God has given mankind the responsibility of caring for his world, both for our own benefit and for the benefit of generations to come. We all have a responsibility to care for the whole of his creation.

We believe that every human being is made in the image of God and that every member of our school community deserves the best possible experience of primary education in order to become aspirational, principled and engaged human beings.

We are blessed with wonderful grounds and staff take every opportunity to take learning outside as well as planning in exciting topic-linked trips and inviting visitors in to talk to the children.
