Welcome to Crossacres Primary Academy. Here at Crossacres, we are immensely proud to provide our children with the care, support and education that will instil within them:

• A love for learning that will last for their entire lives.
• A knowledge based on the highest level of teaching and real-world experiences that will broaden their minds and open their horizons.
• A sense of duty and pride to grow into people that show kindness, respect, tenacity and integrity; people that will enhance and care for our community and other communities beyond our own.

Our curriculum has been uniquely designed so that our pupils can:

• Challenge themselves to become the best people they can.
• Progress as quickly and effectively as they can, with long-lasting effects.
• Aspire to be whatever they want to be, with no limitations.

Our school creates an interesting, enjoyable and peaceful environment where children feel safe and confident to challenge themselves and to make the outstanding progress that we are so proud of.

Crossacres values and ethos is illustrated through the implementation of our innovative curriculum, especially designed to meet the needs of our children.

Children at Crossacres are taught the essential knowledge that they need for their future. It introduces pupils to the best that has been thought and said, it promotes an appreciation of human creativity and achievement. Crossacres uses the National Curriculum as a basis to develop exciting and stimulating lessons to promote the development of pupil’s knowledge, understanding and skills.

The children’s experiences extend beyond the National Curriculum and pupils are taught about social, moral, spiritual and cultural aspects of life. It is also enhanced by the provision of forest schools, music lessons and visits to the surrounding area to give pupils first-hand experience to develop their knowledge and skills further.

Our school is based in Wythenshawe, this is a challenging area, our curriculum powerfully addresses social disadvantage by ensuring that the curriculum meets the particular needs of the children. The curriculum includes learning about healthy eating, the importance of exercise, staying safe, and mental wellbeing.

Each National Curriculum subject is planned out for each year group, identifying skills and knowledge to be taught each term.
