Maple Class

Maple Class

 
 
Maple class are a wonderful mix of pupils from years 5, 6 and 7. We study a broad curriculum and are a ready to learn class. We have, and foster, positive relationships, working as a team, being respectful and trying our best. Through this we can develop our academic understanding as well as our social and emotional understanding of ourselves and othersEmbedded into our academic curriculum are regular opportunities to play games, to build teamwork and develop friendship and social skills. Our differences are celebrated and encouraged. We are flexible in teaching styles and this can include 1 to 1 support, small group work, the use of visuals alongside outstanding teaching practices. An understanding of every pupil as an individual is at the heart of what we do.
