Our curriculum goes beyond the National Curriculum, every aspect of school life at Matching Green is an opportunity for children to develop themselves.  We do this through:

• Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural Development
• Teaching of the British Values
• RSHE Curriculum
• Character Development 
• Pupil Voice

Every school in England must promote SMSC (Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural).

Spiritual 

Explore beliefs and experience; respect faiths, feelings and values; enjoy learning about oneself, others and the surrounding world; use imagination and creativity; reflect
