CUSP

Curriculum with unity schools partnership

What is CUSP?

The CUSP partnership serves pupils across over 700 schools in the UK, as well as a growing number of international schools too. The aim of this partnership model is collaboration. In joining the CUSP community, you will be surrounded by passionate educators who are equally as committed as you are to providing exceptional outcomes for pupils. All our evidence is showcased from the classroom and excellent practice – it’s where we make the genuine gains.

Why we Choose CUSP?

CUSP is guided by evidence-led curriculum structures, such as retrieval, spaced retrieval practice and interleaving. It is underpinned by explicit vocabulary instruction and research-focused pedagogy. Combining these has led to exceptional outcomes for pupils, as a result of coherent curriculum design and instructional teaching. It also gives you, as school leaders, consistency and expectations.

Research and evidence-led practice guides our principles. We support all CUSP partner schools and we have an experienced CUSP implementation team who are able to offer live support around specific CPD on request. We are always happy to put you in contact with other school leaders who have very successfully embedded the full CUSP curriculum.

As every school is different, all planning templates are editable so that they can be tailored to your individual school context and class needs.
