Daily assemblies reflect the broad traditions of Islamic belief and acknowledge the contribution made by all cultures to our school. Children are encouraged to develop a caring attitude towards each other.
The school recognises that children may require additional help or extending in particular areas. Children who are assessed as having special educational needs may be supported by the class teacher. Support is given to children in classrooms and in small withdrawal groups.
Pupils are assessed at three key assessment points every year; with this data we monitor, assess and adapt teaching. This allows us to address misconceptions and gaps as they are identified, ensuring that our curriculum effectively meets the needs of all pupils.
On the first day of a new topic, each class has an initial assessment day, where the children state what they know already and what they would like to find out. These act as a hook for the children and ignite their curiosity. As a topic draws to a close, staff plan a review day; an opportunity for the children to show pride in their achievements.
