Academic Curriculum

Teaching at Yarm at Raventhorpe follows the three stages of the National Curriculum - The Foundation Stage (ages 3-5), Key Stage 1 (ages 6-8) and Key Stage 2 (ages 9-11).

Learning is supplemented with a wide variety of activities that stimulate pupils' interest and enhance their all round development, including sports, music and educational visits to local places of interest. Additionally, each child keeps a diary of their learning journey, with words and photos about what they have been doing while at school and at home.  This is a great way for parents to be involved at a crucial time in their child's development.  It also makes a priceless keepsake of the early years. To find out more about each stage of the learning journey, click on the links at the left hand side of the page.
