Curriculum Overview

The National Curriculum is a set of subjects and standards used by all primary schools in England so that all children learn the same things. It covers what subjects are taught and the standards children should reach in each subject. From September 2014 a new National Curriculum has been delivered in all Primary Schools. Follow this link to the Department of Education website to see the full description of what children are expected to learn during their time in school.

You can find out more about any of the subjects that your child is learning by contacting your child’s teacher via the school office on admin@lythe.n-yorks.sch.uk or the headteacher on headteacher@lythe.n-yorks.sch.uk

Please see our Policies page for policies relating to teaching and learning.


Your support for your child’s education is crucial to their progress. Please tell us if there are any adjustments we need to make to help you support your child, for example: letters in large font; letters in different languages; wheelchair access; explaining things over the phone; a discussion with a school colleague of the same gender.
