The Hollyfast Approach
"A new curriculum and a sense of enthusiasm enrich the life of this community." Ofsted Inspection- September 2023
At Hollyfast Primary School, we believe every child deserves a rich, ambitious and inspiring education that prepares them for success in school and beyond. Located in the heart of the Coundon community, with families joining us from across Coventry, we have designed a curriculum that is engaging, knowledge-rich and relevant to the children we serve, while opening their eyes to the wider world and the opportunities it offers.
Inclusion is at the heart of our curriculum. We have high expectations for every child and are committed to ensuring that all pupils, regardless of their starting points, needs or backgrounds, can access, participate in and succeed within the full curriculum. Through carefully adapted teaching, targeted support and an understanding of individual barriers and needs, we ensure that every child is valued, supported and challenged to achieve their very best.
Our curriculum is carefully planned so that learning builds over time. New knowledge and skills are taught in a logical sequence, helping children to remember more, make connections and apply what they have learnt with confidence. We want every child to achieve highly across a broad range of subjects, developing both a depth of understanding and a love of learning.
Alongside academic success, we place a strong emphasis on personal development. Through our curriculum and wider school experiences, children learn to be kind, resilient and responsible. They develop strong relationships, learn to respect different viewpoints and gain the confidence to contribute positively to their community and the wider world.
Learning at Hollyfast extends far beyond the classroom. Educational visits, visitors, performances, leadership opportunities, clubs, competitions and enrichment experiences help bring learning to life and broaden children's horizons. We strive to ensure that all children can access these opportunities, helping every pupil discover new interests, develop their talents and create memorable experiences that inspire future aspirations.
We know that children achieve best when schools and families work together. By building strong partnerships with parents and our wider community, we create a shared commitment to helping every child flourish. Our aim is that every pupil leaves Hollyfast with the knowledge, skills, character and confidence needed to succeed in the next stage of their education and beyond.
