We hope as a team to provide our children with a fair chance at everything on our curriculum before they leave our school.

Team Teaching in Literacy and Numeracy
Team Teaching in Literacy and Numeracy
As a staff we endeavour to ensure that each child has the opportunity to reach his or her potential. Team teaching is employed to provide programmes of Literacy Lift Off and Maths Blast station teaching. Teachers work together in teams to plan and deliver intensive tuition in language, reading, writing and numeracy. The children work in groups at their level of attainment pitched at just the right level to ensure each child experiences success.
