Children spend at least five and a quarter hours at school each day, of which four and three quarters are devoted to lessons. The school 'curriculum' means everything that the child experiences during his/her time at school and includes activities beyond the classroom. We aim to provide a broad, balanced curriculum, matched to the individual abilities, experiences and interests of the children.
We provide a learning environment which encourages each child to develop, as fully as possible, his or her own potential. We want all children to experience successes and build self-confidence, regardless of ability and to know that they are making progress at Cherhill School.
The National Curriculum was introduced with the aim of setting out a clear, full and statutory entitlement to learning for all pupils. It tells schools what has to be taught and how to assess and report on pupil's progress.

It provides a framework for schools to develop a character rooted on their local communities.
The National curriculum consists of ten subjects plus Religious Education. The subjects are:
