Subject Areas

Mathematics

We believe that Mathematics equips children with a uniquely powerful set of tools to understand and change the world.

We believe that Science stimulates and excites children’s curiosity about phenomena and events in the world around them. It links direct practical experience with ideas, and therefore engages children's interest at many levels.

Religious Education

Religious Education is taught in all classes and follows the programme of learning set out in the RBKC Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education.

Computing and Online Safety

Computing is an essential skill in the modern world. All children at Bousfield have the opportunity to work with computers and digital equipment from age three to eleven and are taught the skill of computational thinking.

History

We have developed our History curriculum to fire children’s curiosity to know and understand about the past in Britain and the wider world.

Geography

We believe that Geography helps to provoke and answer questions about the natural and human world, encouraging children to develop a greater understanding of the world and their place in it.

Art

Art is, for most children, a natural form of expression and a source of great pleasure. Art stimulates creativity and imagination. Understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of the visual arts has the power to enrich our lives.

Design and Technology

Design and Technology is about designing and making things. It encourages children to learn to think and be creative, and to solve problems both as individuals and as members of a team.

Physical Education

We believe that Physical Education is an integral part of the curriculum. All children are required to take part in Games, Gymnastics and Dance to develop physical skills and agility, and to develop an active and healthy lifestyle.

Music and Dance

Music and Dance play a huge part in our school life and are taught to all classes; we are fortunate to have specialist teachers for these subjects. They plan their lessons to teach specific skills as well as to complement the class topics.

P.S.H.E.

Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education (PSHE) aims to give children the knowledge, skills and understanding they need to lead confident and independent lives, and become informed and responsible citizens.

French

At Bousfield we are keen to promote the study of a foreign language. We wish to give the children confidence that they can understand and speak another language and see that acquiring a language can be fun.
