Our Curriculum at DESS is “Irresistible”

DESS is an English National Curriculum School and we follow the key outcomes and objectives required, particularly in the core subjects of Numeracy, Literacy and Science. However in order to make our curriculum irresistible we ensure that it is delivered in a way that is meaningful, relevant, challenging and progressive for all of our children. We deliver our curriculum thematically to encourage the children to transfer skills across subjects and to help them apply their knowledge to real life contexts. Our excellent standard of teaching also ensures our children develop key learning skills such as teamwork, research, speaking and listening and problem solving to prepare them for the challenges of tomorrow.
