Curriculum

THE SCHOOL CURRICULUM AND CLASS ORGANISATION

 

Classes are organised in year groups. Each class is organised into ability groups for Maths and English and mixed ability groups for other subjects.  There needs to be order and discipline in the classroom.  There are skills that the child needs to acquire and these skills are more easily learned within a structure proceeding by stages, relating to what has gone before and what is to follow.

 

The achievement of goals is important.  Teachers use a variety of teaching methods ensuring that children are motivated and that their learning is aimed at understanding and not simply memorising.

 

Children are given and are expected to complete on time formal homework.
