Peterborough Curriculum
The Peterborough Curriculum project is establishing a network of local schools and organisations who will design parts of their own school curriculum. The project will engage a wide community of people and organisations in Peterborough to provide young people with a curriculum that reflects local priorities and values. By connecting more people in Peterborough with education, and by connecting young people in the city with their local area, we hope to encourage civic participation and activity across all generations.
A network of five schools in the Peterborough area, including Dogsthorpe Junior School, Bishop Creighton Primary School, West Town Primary School, Ken Stimpson Community School and Thomas Deacon Academy, are working to map existing relationships and resources prior to developing initial curriculum plans later this year. A range of organisations have indicated their interest in the project, including Peterborough United FC, Peterborough Cathedral, Sacrewell Farm, Nene Park Trust, the Peterborough Council for Voluntary Service and New Link. The RSA team is facilitating conversations between several of these potential partners and schools to explore possible ideas for projects and partnerships.
