At Poppleton Road Primary, personal development is a fundamental component of our values-based curriculum, fostering a holistic approach that extends beyond academic success. We believe that nurturing the emotional and social growth of our children is essential for preparing them for future life as British citizens.

Our curriculum is designed to instil core values such as respect, responsibility, empathy, and resilience, empowering children to become confident and compassionate individuals. Through a variety of activities, including collaborative projects, community involvement and reflective practices, we aim to cultivate an environment where every child can thrive and develop a strong sense of self and community awareness. By prioritising personal development, we equip our children with the skills and values necessary to navigate an ever-changing world and contribute positively to society.

Through “Finding My Voice,” we recognise the essential need for children to develop emotionally in order to discover their true selves and confidently express their thoughts and feelings. We are committed to creating opportunities throughout the school day that foster self-growth and personal development. Our curriculum is designed to instil a strong sense of belonging among children, not only to the Poppleton Road community but also to the broader society. By nurturing these aspects, we aim to empower each child to find their unique voice and navigate their personal and social environments with confidence and resilience
