Learning and Curriculum
All students in Key Stage 2 will have the opportunity to engage in play-based, child led provision scheduled for parts of the school day. Learning during continuous provision will be opportunistic and inspired by each individual child’s interests and thought processes. These opportunities will enable students to engage in learning activities which are designed to be low demand. Students will have ample opportunity for both indoor and outdoor learning activities. Students and staff will be able to capture their learning through the use of technology and match it to key objectives within the National Curriculum. Resources provided during continuous provision sessions will be linked to planned objectives for the day but will give the students the opportunity to use the resources creatively to facilitate learning. As children gain confidence in their learning and are able to master key learning skills it is likely that they will be able to access more formal styles of learning as they progress through the school. Students in Key Stage 3 will continue to have opportunities for less formal learninthrough the use of cross curricular project-based topic work. It is anticipated that by Key Stage 4 all students will have developed their learning skills to a point where they are able to access a more formal curriculum.
Extra Curricular
Students will be exposed to a range of experiences and professions through demonstrations by visitors to the school. Students can observe, or participate in, these while in a familiar environment. Trips (e.g. to a castle or museum) and events (e.g. school fete, art gallery) will be planned to support learning and provide experiences for students. Events at the school will aim to involve parents and families of students if possible. Visits, trips and events will be linked to the current curriculum theme or will be life skills or experiences the students will benefit from
