- RE
- Information Technology (ICT) is used daily in all aspects of the curriculum
By Primary 3 our children learn to play recorders and learn Beginner's Spanish. School trips and visitors are used to enhance learning opportunities throughout the school.
We believe that in the early years children need experiences in all these areas in order to develop sound foundations for learning. Our approach is through a balance of practical and written work, through topic work and through individual, group and whole class teaching. Careful monitoring and evaluation ensures that all children are challenged and experience success.
