Junior School:
Years 1 to 4 (5 - 9 years of age)

The carefully structured programme in these forms lays the foundations of basic skills in English, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, Design Technology (DT) and Information Technology (IT).

Great importance is attached to the acquisition of fluent reading and numeracy skills, through whole class, group and individual work. PE/Games, Conversational French, Music and Music & Movement are taught by specialists.

Individual progress is carefully monitored and reported to parents. Children requiring attention to extension or support of learning will be identified and provision made for them through the Special Needs department.

Above all it is important to develop a level of independence in learning and to stimulate the imagination through access to a variety of resources including outings and educational visitors. The programme of pastoral care fosters initiative and courtesy for others and is supported through Circle Time and assembly themes. Our behaviour policy rewards all sorts of achievement in work and conduct through stickers, badges, certificates and the Achievement Tree.
