The National Curriculum
The national curriculum is a set of subjects and standards used by primary and secondary schools so children learn the same things. It covers what subjects are taught and the standards children should reach in each subject.
The National Curriculum sets out the minimum content for our curriculum. Please use the links below to find out what our children will be taught.

Religious Education at Tadcaster Primary Academy
We recognise the importance of teaching Religious Education (RE) in a creative, knowledge-rich, broad and balanced way. Learning activities provide fully for the needs of all pupils, so that they develop a wide range of skills including enquiry, analysis, interpretation, evaluation and reflection. They provide opportunities to engage in meaningful and informed dialogue with those of all religions and world views.
RE lessons provide a safe space to explore religious, spiritual and/or philosophical ways of seeing, living and thinking, believing and belonging.
We would hope that all children will enjoy participating fully in RE. We aim to provide an open curriculum which can be taught to all pupils, by all staff. However, parents have a right to withdraw their children from RE. If you wish to do this, please contact the school to discuss in more detail by contacting admin.tad@ebor.academy
