April Update

 Probably the most fundamental achievement was our completion of leadership training for all our curricular leaders. We have an excellent team of coordina-tors and we have been working hard to be as productive and efficient as possible.

 Our Key Stage 2 teachers also developed their knowledge of reciprocal reading. This is a reading teaching strategy that helps to enhance pupils’ comprehension and teamwork skills.

 We are also developing our ‘Author Bashes’ in Key Stage 2. It is our intention that each term all our Year 5 to 7 pupils will study an author and then participate in a house competition table quiz. This month we have planned a Michael Morpurgo table quiz on Friday 29th April.

 The curricular teams have been studying pupils’ and parental feedback to help draw up our next School Development Plan for 2016 to 2019.
