Our implementation
Every year group learns through a series of topics, designed to build on subject knowledge and skills year on year. Most subjects are taught through these topics, with age-appropriate schemes of work for PSHE and PE. Maths and phonics are taught discreetly from the topic learning, using objectives from the National Curriculum and the Letters and Sounds guidance respectively.

ATTENDANCE
Miss school, miss out!
Children who are of a legal school age (the term after they are 5) must attend school regularly. This is vital if children are to reach their full potential; academically, socially and emotionally. Just missing the odd day does not seem like a big issue, but the days soon add up into weeks of lost learning opportunities.

Morning registration is at 8.30am and afternoon registration is at 1pm. Being on time is an important skill for children to learn and ensures they do not miss any lessons. Our school target for attendance and punctuality is 96% and is monitored regularly by the Headteacher. Please speak to your child's class teacher if they are finding it hard to have good attendance or to come to school on time.
