Our Learning
Maths: We are a Teaching for Mastery school. Mastering maths means pupils of all ages acquiring a deep, long-term, secure and adaptable understanding of the subject. The phrase ‘teaching for mastery’ describes the elements of classroom practice and school organisation that combine to give pupils the best chances of mastering maths. Achieving mastery means acquiring a solid enough understanding of the maths that’s been taught to enable pupils to move on to more advanced material.
Our English curriculum is designed using Lancashire planning, ensuring high-quality, structured learning for all students. We incorporate books from a wide range of genres to inspire creativity, develop literacy skills, and foster a love of reading.
Throughout the year, we undertake our My Happy Mind lessons every Tuesday morning where the children have their own journals for this. My Happy Mind helps to prepare today’s children for tomorrow’s world by building resilient, balanced and happy minds at home and school; equipping all children with the knowledge, skills and tools to thrive in the modern world.
