Looking to the future in terms of Curriculum, Learning
                    and Teaching

What kind of culture of learning do we need to create
                  for our students?
Vision Looking to the future in terms of Curriculum, Learning and Teaching - What kind of culture of learning do we need to create
The challenges we face...
 •   New qualifications with increased content

 •   Linear qualification with a need to be able to recall knowledge
     taught 2 or more years earlier.

 •   We need students to be more independent than ever to succeed -
     they have to nail their revision.

A5 Student Diaries
Knowledge Organiser Homework
Tutors will check that this task has been accomplished every Monday in tutor time.

Students should organise their time so that they cover the full set of subjects. Teachers will normally guide
students on which areas to focus.

Students should expect to be quizzed on the content of Knowledge Organisers on a weekly basis.

Students are encouraged to supplement their homework with other forms of subject revision including the
use of revision guides.
Reading

The ability to read quickly and accurately is becoming increasingly important as students face a more
challenging curriculum and tougher exams. In order to master new content and interpret questions
skilfully, our students must have strong literacy skills.

To help meet this challenge, we expect each student to read for at least 20 minutes every evening.
Form tutors, librarians and English department staff will be happy to give advice about what to read.

The benefits of regular reading can be seen across all curriculum areas. Regular readers are more
able to read at speed, develop a broader vocabulary, and construct organised and detailed written
responses.

Having learnt to read, our students need to read to learn. This homework will give them the skills to
do so confidently.
Maths
It is important that our students can see the role of mathematics in their daily lives. A good maths
education will provide our students with the tools to understand, analyse, critique, and take action
regarding important issues in our world.
In a world where technological advances are growing rapidly and tasks become more sophisticated,
Maths skills are becoming increasingly more important and are hugely sought after by employers.
To encourage student independence and problem solving skills, students will be required to engage
with 20 minutes of Maths every day, outside of school.
Students in Year 7, 8 and 9 will be set mymaths homework which will be checked by their maths
teacher.
Students in KS4 will be allocated grade booster packs, and at times, supplementary tasks such as
past papers, particularly in the lead up to exams.
