Subjects

At Horley Infant School we possess a strong belief in the benefits and pleasure of lifelong learning. We provide a creative, stimulating and balanced curriculum, where children are able to question, investigate and take ownership of their learning.

Our teachers possess good subject knowledge and a good understanding of child development. They are skilled in ensuring a variety of teaching styles and resources are utilised and see that children are supported and challenged as they work in a range of purposeful situations and environments. These factors, together with regular evaluations of the impact and delivery of the curriculum and monitoring and assessment of children’s progress, ensure the curriculum meets each child’s needs.

Children’s learning is significantly enhanced and improved if well supported at home. We involve parents in their child’s learning by setting home-learning activities, holding parent meetings, consultations and innovative workshops that help parents to understand how their children learn in school. Equally the development of the link between home and school ensures we can support children both academically and pastorally in an inclusive environment.
