Approach to Learning
At Kettering Park Infant Academy, we have reviewed the whole curriculum to ensure that it meets the diverse needs of our pupils. We have ensured that each subject has a clear approach and that the learning is clearly mapped out for each of our pupils. Our curriculum is based around our key drivers, PLANT (Personal growth, Love of learning, Aspirational, No one left out, Teamwork).
We strongly believe that all children are entitled to a broad and balanced education that is just right for them. This will then enable them to thrive and enjoy the opportunities given to them by Kettering Park Infants.
