Paddington Curriculum Overview

Welcome to our Paddington curriculum page. We believe that children have a right to expect a curriculum which is fun, motivating, interesting and most importantly purposeful.

We think Acre Heads Primary brings something special to every child that walks through our doors – we offer an exciting curriculum experience to all our children. Our school ethos is built on our core values: BELIEF, DETERMINATION, RESILIENCE and TEAMWORK and enables children to achieve extraordinary things.

On this page, you will find further information about our Paddington curriculum, useful videos, links and resources for starting Paddington with insights into the activities and learning environments within this provision.

Contact your child’s class:

Paddington Explorers began STEM fortnight with a magic heart experiment.

They dripped food colouring onto love heart shaped cotton pads, adding a squirt of washing up liquid to the hearts before dropping them into some milk and watching the magic happen!

The children loved watching the colours escape from the hearts and stream through the milk.

Well done Explorers!
