These documents are designed to give parents an overview of what topics are being taught each term in their child's classroom. It will give parents an opportunity to discuss what their child has learnt and to help develop their skills further at home.

The ways in which a child engages with other people and their environment underpin learning and development across all areas and support the child to remain an effective and motivated learner. The three Characteristics of Effective Learning are:

• playing and exploring - finding out and exploring, playing with what they know, being willing to ‘have a go’

• active learning - being involved and concentrating, keeping trying, enjoying achieving what they set out to do

• creating and thinking critically - having their own ideas, making links, choosing ways to do things.

Our Multiple Intelligence show our children that in life all people can be successful and that we all have a range of strategies and methods that support our individual needs in order to learn. Furthermore, these intelligences help to naturally shape our lives and ultimately draw us towards a certain career path. 

We therefore recognise these and encourage all children throughout the school to use their preferred style of learning.  

In the document below, you will find more detailed information and examples of how we share our Multiple Intelligence focus with our children. 

In this booklet you will find information relating to our sash awards. Throughout the year, we will encourage the children to understand the importance of being able to carry out and master a range of practical and community based skills. We ask that parents continue the practice of these skills at home and help the children to achieve the badge related to each area.
