Curriculum Overview

 

PE

This year, Year 1 have PE lessons on a Thursday. PE lessons consist of structured teaching in a variety of indoor and outdoor activities. To ensure full access and high performance in PE, your children need to come to school wearing their PE kits on a Thursday. 

  • Plain shorts / leggings / tracksuit bottoms with school badge: (dark blue or John Scurr blue)
  • Plain long or short sleeved T-shirt (white or pale blue). Additional sweatshirt ( blue)
  • They will also need black trainers or plimsolls.

Reading at Home

Reading All pupils will be given a book for reading for pleasure that they can change daily. They will also be given a phonics book every Friday. There need to be returned to school the following friday. If a book is lost at home the school will charge a £3 fine to replace it. All pupils will be expected to read for at least 10 minutes each day before bedtime.

Attendance & Punctuality

  • The main gates open at 8:45am.
  • The bell will ring at 8:45am.
  • Our guided reading begins at 8:50am, meaning anyone who is late is missing out on learning.
  • Arrival after 9:00am will be marked as late.

We hold high expectations of all of our students and expect them to attend school on time, every single day. Missing a single session has a negative impact on their learning and progress and we encourage you to mirror the same expectations at home. Please encourage your children to attend and refrain from keeping them at home unless absolutely necessary.
