At Harrowbarrow our curriculum continually evolves as we review the impact of our work and identify priority areas for improvement. Each term we hold a number of collapsed curriculum days where curriculum leads design learning around key aspects for improvement. On these special days, children from the EYFS to Year 6 all focus on learning in one area but at the expected level for their age. For example, in computing there was a whole school focus on problem solving using algorithms. 

On this page we celebrate the learning achieved by the children.
