Curriculum Maestro

Your school will have an online 'home' for everything to do with your curriculum. First, you'll get access to a well-sequenced and ambitious curriculum of over 100 Cornerstones Curriculum projects supported by teaching resources. Staff can then edit content and add lessons and projects to the platform if they wish.
The curriculum is linked to a built-in skills and knowledge framework to ensure progression and connection in children's learning over time. Maestro also includes clever tools to help you to easily articulate how subjects and concepts develop over time through your curriculum. It really has everything you need right now to deliver an ambitious, coherent primary curriculum that children will love (and that saves teachers' time).

Our experienced curriculum advisers will provide you with ongoing curriculum support whenever you need it.

Our team includes experienced primary leaders, advisers and teachers who are here to help you at every step of your curriculum journey. We can help you to work on your curriculum intent, help you to implement it, and how to monitor and maintain its impact on teaching and learning. Visit our 'About’ page to view our team and our ‘Contact’ page to get in touch. You can also ask us questions via Live Chat on our website and on your Maestro homepage.

Maestro comes with an inbuilt skills and knowledge progression framework, which underpins your curriculum content. This framework gives teachers clear assessment points in every primary subject. Maestro provides teachers with class-based assessment tools to monitor and support learning. Live recording of what has been taught and learnt, alongside quizzes and more formal half termly tests, enables you to make quality assessment for learning and accurate teacher assessments.

We've partnered with Wonde to synchronise Maestro with information in your MIS (such as Capita SIMS, RM Integris, ScholarPack). This means that your classes and pupils will always be up to date with information about attributes, new pupils or pupils that have left the school. Maestro uses this information securely to populate your midterm plans, monitor actual coverage and allow you to assess in real time.

If your school is not yet using the Wonde portal, we will cover the cost of this service for you. This means that you have the option, free of charge, to ensure that Maestro stays in sync with any relevant information that you input or change in your MIS. Please get in touch to find out more.

Absolutely! Maestro saves teachers hours, if not weeks, of planning time. You have everything that you need to plan, deliver, monitor and assess your curriculum, all in one place. The 100+ projects are sequenced, connected, adaptable and come with high-quality resources, so that you don’t have to trawl the internet looking for resources to use in classes. We also offer ongoing teacher support, to help you to make the most of your curriculum.

Due to the current COVID-19 restrictions and government guidelines, much of our support is offered through online demonstrations. If you need us to visit in person, we can do this so long as government guidelines are followed.

A demo is a perfect opportunity to see what Maestro offers you. A curriculum adviser from your region will ask you what you need and will show you how to use Maestro in the best way to support your school. The demo is a great way to get a feel for what Maestro includes and how it can save you time. After that, you can easily book a more focused session with members of your team.

The best way to trial Maestro is to book a one to one or group demo with one of our advisers. They will listen to your needs and show you the features that will help you most. You are then very welcome to book further demos and ask us any questions before deciding upon purchasing your licence. Once your licence starts, you’ll get ongoing curriculum support to help you to get the most out of Maestro. Download our brochure about Curriculum Maestro

Reading is supported in each project and lessons are regularly based around linked books and novels. Our resources also enable children to read across the curriculum. The projects include opportunities to teach PE, PSHE, music and computing, but for full coverage of these and Relationships and Health Education (RHE), teachers can use Maestro’s skills and knowledge framework to plan schemes of work. Our Love to Celebrate RE projects can also help teachers to plan and deliver their locally agreed RE syllabus.

We believe that an outstanding primary curriculum is one that includes authentic, meaningful links between subjects. Our original projects include plenty of opportunities for cross-curricular learning. Our new curriculum projects are more subject driven, but still make meaningful links to other subjects where this enhances children's learning. We provide you with a curriculum framework that includes the ideal subject projects to be taught alongside each other, each term. A balanced, connected approach helps children to broaden their skills, knowledge and understanding of subjects over time. Download a brochure about Curriculum 22

We can show you around the projects when you book a demo. Or, read our blog about knowledge-rich projects for more information.

3. Sequencing of lessons com

Schools tell us that Maestro has supported them extremely well during the subject deep dives. The sequenced curriculum Curriculum 22, online tools and resources enable leaders to keep a close eye on actual, not just intended, subject coverage and progression. Maestro makes it very quick and easy to articulate to inspectors the rationale behind your curriculum, how it is sequenced, and where and how subject aspects are taught. Book a demo and we can show you exactly how Maestro supports you with the inspection process and deep dives.

It fits perfectly. Our curriculum experts began developing Maestro even before the new Ofsted framework was published. From our research, leaders told us that they needed a one platform solution to help them to deliver, monitor and articulate well-constructed, ambitious curricula. Curriculum sequencing and knowledge-rich content are high on Ofsted's agenda and the curriculum housed on Maestro, Curriculum 22, more than meets this demand. The new inspection framework identifies three stages of curriculum excellence: intent, implementation and impact. You can deliver and manage all three on Maestro at the click of a few buttons.
