Classes
At the start of each term each year group uploads a curriculum map on their class page explaining in detail the areas that will be covered in each of the subjects over the coming weeks ahead. This can be viewed on the individual class pages along with other relevant information about your child's class.

Children are grouped in various ways throughout the school day according to ability or for other reasons, and for different curriculum areas. On occasion, children may spend time with other classes who are working at levels more appropriate for an individual child. Teachers use regular assessments and analysis of assessment data to provide intervention groups for children who require additional support or stretch in different subject areas.
