Our  Learning And Teaching Core Strategies Cards (January 2018), forms part of our curriculum and central to the schools T&L strategy. This forms a central part of our Curriculum Guide, bringing consistency in T&L practice across the school. These have been developed in consultation with our Staff and Pupil Council, based upon best practice in education. Influences include Shirley Clark’s , ‘Outstanding Formative Assessment’,  Professor John Haddie’s, ‘Visible Learning’ and Carol Dweck’s, ‘Growth Mindset’; all leading edge education research and strategy.

Ask your child about these strategies and how they use them in class, especially our very own, ‘S2S‘!!

We will continue to evaluate and build on  these cards and strategies as we further engage with research and strive to provide  high, quality consistent practice for our pupils.
