Our Curriculum

The 3 -18 National Guidelines are designed to provide a continuous programme for learning in Scottish schools. This programme is delivered through the Curriculum for Excellence (CfE), with all Scottish schools working to develop children as Responsible Citizens, Effective Contributors, Successful Learners and Confident Individuals. 

Teachers will share information to plan a child’s ‘learning journey’ from age 3-18. They ensure children continue to work at an appropriate pace and that they are also challenged. Clearly, this means a different pace for different children. Within each class and in key subject areas your child will be working in one of three or four groups, matched to ability.

CfE also develops skills for learning, life and work. Teaching and learning is placed within a ‘real world’ context wherever possible, making learning relevant to help our young people apply knowledge and skills to their life beyond the classroom.
