How to Help Your Child
Need some fun ways to support your child at home?
We believe home learning should be enjoyable but also educational. Children make more progress when they are engaged in their learning and supported at home. In Maths, regularly repeating skills such as number bonds and times tables can really help a child gain fluency and confidence in their number skills. In Literacy, as well as reading at home on a daily basis, spelling and phonics games can be highly motivating. In our experience, children learn best when they are having fun and that's what games are for!
