Questions for the Dinner table

We want to make it easier for you to engage in meaningful conversations with your child about their learning. To support your child in developing effective communication skills, which are a crucial part of our curriculum, we will provide a set of questions each half term.

These questions are designed to help your child articulate what they have learned, fostering their oracy skills. We believe this will not only enhance your understanding of your child's education but also enable you to explore the details of their learning journey.

Furthermore, it's a fantastic opportunity for students to reinforce key concepts from the previous half term. Each term, we will spotlight a different subject to focus on.
