Teaching and learning policy

We believe that children learn best in different ways, we therefore aim to provide a rich and varied learning environment, which allows children to develop their skills and abilities and to meet their full potential.

 

Through our teaching we aim to:

  • Embed an agreed range of good practice across the school.
  • Provide a unified focus for monitoring learning and classroom practice
  • Ensure that the needs of pupils are met
  • Establish targets for improvement
  • Ensure that pupils are receiving a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum, meeting the requirements of the national curriculum
  • Enhance the professional development of staff.
  • Ensure that teaching is appropriately differentiated for all pupils
  • Enable children to become confident and resourceful, enquiring and independent learners
  • Foster children’s self-esteem and help them to build positive relationships with each other and other people
  • Develop children’s self respect and encourage them to respect the ideas, attitudes, values and feelings of others
  • Show respect for all cultures and in doing so promote positive attitudes towards other people
  • Enable children to understand their community and help them feel valued as part of this community
  • Help children grow into reliable, independent and positive citizens
