​Our Wider Curriculum 

In keeping with our intentions, school provides a wide range of opportunities to: 
  • Promote healthy lifestyles, such as cookery workshops and health focus months 
  • Provide experience of arts, such as theatre groups and visiting musicians 
  • Broaden religious and cultural awareness, such as weekly Spanish lessons and our annual multicultural market
  • Promote a love of language and literature, including visits and workshops by librarians and authors, annual reading weeks and Reading Club 
  • Provide visits from a range of inspirational role models who reflect and embody our school values
Sports Premium supports our Stockport School Sports Partnership as well as a range of fitness workshops and partnership with PE and dance experts. Community links are made wherever possible such as Warburton ‘Healthy Sandwich’ making workshops, local authors, RSPB and Aldi environmental workshops and singing club concerts for our neighbours at Elm Court, sheltered accommodation.

School clubs are reviewed regularly in terms of addressing our goals and the needs of the pupils and community. These include Singing Club, Science Club, Football Club, Netball Club, Karate, Lego Club, Dance Club and the opportunity to take ukulele lessons. A charge is made for clubs run by outside agencies. Pupils registered for income related Free School Meals are offered support with charges for access to clubs.
Picture
The ‘Banks Lane Infant Experience’ identifies the opportunities and experiences which we believe all children should have during their time in our care. Experiences have been planned to strengthen our curriculum offer, in keeping with our vision and values and include, making a healthy meal, helping a plant to grow and observing a live musical performance.

Children are provided with their own record of experiences which they are able to complete over time. Themed weeks/months such as anti-bullying week, ‘values month’, British Values week, Science Week and our ‘health month’ incorporate competitions, wider community involvement and additional opportunities and enable us to promote our intentions and values.
