About the School

This is a high performing school which was most recently judged 'Good' by OFSTED and was particularly praised for school-wide good behaviour and significant growth in reading. A large percentage of children are working at age-related expectations and this success is largely due to an experienced Headteacher who is passionate about their role and works hard to attain the highest standards of teaching and learning across the school.

The school aims to deliver a broad curriculum which encourages and inspires children to do their best and through creative approaches stimulates curiosity for learning beyond the classroom.

• Plan clear steps to success with definitive criteria and ensure every learner can succeed
• Build a positive rapport with all pupils based on trust and mutual respect and encourage children to take ownership and individual accountability for their learning
• Differentiate lessons to both scaffold and stretch learners appropriately and plan targeted interventions across all core subjects to bridge gaps in learning
• Keep up-to-date records of attainment and use pre and post assessments effectively to inform when to revisit/reteach and incorporate mini-plenaries into lessons
• Liaise with the other Year 6 class teacher to plan targeted interventions to accelerate pupil progress and support pupils meeting age related expectations
• Support pupils, behavioural, social and emotional wellbeing and ensure all children leave Year 6 being readily prepared for the transition to Secondary school.
