Our Curriculum

Building Futures

Future Proofing

At Pilton Infants, we are committed to inspiring our children to dream big and think about their future with hope and ambition. As a forward-thinking school, we believe that nurturing aspirations from an early age is crucial to shaping confident, capable individuals who understand the world around them and their place within it. Our vision of Learning for Life underpins everything we do, encouraging children to imagine and work toward a bright future.

Our Big Event curriculum is designed to give pupils a wealth of first-hand experiences that expand their horizons, helping them to see the many possibilities the world has to offer. Through exciting trips and hands-on learning opportunities, we aim to broaden their understanding of different professions, cultures, and environments, igniting their curiosity and aspirations.

Alongside building aspirations, we ensure that our pupils learn how to stay healthy and safe, equipping them with essential life skills that will support them as they grow. To achieve these goals, we implement the following initiatives:

  • Big Event trips: These experiences are carefully planned to enrich pupils' understanding of the world and inspire them to think about the wide range of opportunities available to them.
  • Health and Safety talks: We provide regular health and safety education to empower children with the knowledge to take care of themselves and others in various situations.
  • Comprehensive PSHE curriculum: Our Personal, Social, Health, and Economic (PSHE) education covers important topics such as emotional well-being, healthy relationships, and decision-making, preparing children for the challenges of the future.
  • Transition programme at the end of KS1: As part of our focus on smooth transitions, we work closely with Pilton Bluecoat Academy, which shares our site, to ensure that pupils are well-prepared for their next stage of learning. Our comprehensive transition programme helps children feel confident and supported as they move from KS1 to KS2, easing any anxieties and setting them up for success.

By offering these enriching experiences and essential life skills, we aim to inspire every child at Pilton Infants to build a positive future for themselves, with the confidence and aspirations to achieve their goals. Our approach to Building Future is part of our broader commitment to Learning for Life, helping children develop the resilience, curiosity, and ambition they need to thrive in the years ahead.
