Curriculum
The curriculum at Lexden centres around our core values of: Community, Courage, Commitment and Curiosity. We intend for the children's understanding of these values to increase alongside their knowledge in core and foundation subjects.
Our Vision
At Lexden Primary School, everyone strives to create
a community built on effective partnerships, respect and
high aspirations.
We believe our children should feel valued and aim for
excellence in all that they do.
Our challenging and innovative curriculum offers a
wealth of experience and opportunity, developing skills,
confidence and independence, to prepare our children
for tomorrow.
Our Ethos
We are aiming for excellence in every aspect of school life. We believe this is achieved by promoting our values.
Community - We respect the world around us and the people we share it with
Courage - We are brave and believe in ourselves; we take responsibility for our own actions
Curiosity - We are always ready to learn new things
Commitment - We persevere; always doing our best in all that we do
Every child is given a Lexden Passport to Tomorrow which contains activities inspired by our values.

Parents Guide to the National Curriculum
For generations, parents have found themselves visiting primary schools with their children only to hear themselves saying, “It’s not like when I was at school.” Things change quickly in education, and at no time in the past 25 years has that been truer than September 2014 when the whole school curriculum changes for maintained schools throughout England.
