The National curriculum serves as the foundation for each subject. Kapow Primary’s curriculum is designed to ensure gradual progression toward the endpoints outlined in the National curriculum. If these endpoints change, it affects the foundation of our subjects.
Our update process will follow the sequence:
- Progression of knowledge and skills documents — updated first, to reflect the new endpoints and provide clarity on what pupils need to know and be able to do at each stage.
- Long-term plans — adjusted next, to map out how schools can cover the updated progression across the year.
- Units and lessons — finally, we’ll make changes at the classroom level to ensure teaching resources are fully aligned.
Yes. We will create support materials and CPD opportunities to guide teachers through the changes. These may include webinars, short videos and written guides, ensuring staff feel confident to adapt quickly.
One key benefit of Kapow Primary is that, once the new curriculum is implemented, our teacher videos will support staff in effectively delivering the updated curriculum.
No. Updates to curriculum coverage are included with your current subscription. This is part of our commitment to keeping Kapow Primary current and aligned with national expectations.
Yes. Schools will continue to teach the current National curriculum until the new curriculum officially takes effect. This will be confirmed in the Curriculum and Assessment Review’s final report. Throughout this transition, all existing Kapow Primary resources will remain fully aligned and appropriate for use.
To ensure our content remains up-to-date with the new curriculum, we will archive any units that no longer meet the requirements. These archived units will remain accessible, as we recognise they are valued and useful resources.
Schools will likely approach the transition differently: some might want to adopt changes as soon as possible, while others may prefer a more gradual shift. Our guidance and resources will support both approaches, so you can proceed at the pace that best suits your school.
We will clearly mark all lessons and units to show their alignment with the new curriculum. Additionally, our search tools will include filters, allowing you to quickly find the relevant content from the new curriculum.
We will keep you updated at every stage. Updates will be shared through:
- Our Curriculum updates page, where you’ll find the latest information about changes and how Kapow Primary is responding.
- Regular emails and newsletters, so you don’t miss key announcements.
- In-platform notifications and blogs, highlighting new or updated resources.
This means you will always know what has changed, what’s coming next and how Kapow supports you to stay fully aligned with the curriculum.
