At Lons Infant School, we have carefully designed our curriculum. As a Local Authority maintained school, we have to teach The National Curriculum. As a school, we use this as a basis but go beyond it, to create well-sequenced and knowledge-rich content which aims to engage pupils and promote excellent outcomes for all. Our curriculum is designed to develop long-lasting, 'sticky' knowledge and memories, as well as a secure understanding of subjects.
Our curriculum aims to be accessible to all and complies with The Equality Act 2010 and Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulation 2014. We believe in a broad and balanced education for all children which is intrinsically linked to their individual needs and personal targets.

Forest Learning
We have an expansive forest area that gives our children opportunities to develop confidence through hands on learning in a woodland environment. The natural world provides a wealth of opportunities to expand young children's learning through multi-sensory exploration, experimentation and adult supervised play.
Our Reception children visit the forest area every week carrying out a different activity in the woodland environment. School provides all children with water poofs so they just need to bring their own wellies which most children leave in school.
