Besoins éducatifs particuliers : offre scolaire Inclusion in Our School In the Spring term of 2024, all of our school stakeholders worked together to build a shared definition of inclusion in our school. This is what they decided: “At Captain Webb Primary School, inclusion means we are always changing our school and the way we work so that everyone in our community can be present, participate and achieve. We work hard to reduce exclusion from the learning, culture and community of our school. It involves the constant restructuring of our cultures, policies and practices so they respond to the changing diversity of students”. Chez Captain Webb, notre objectif principal est de fournir un programme inclusif, différencié et prenant en compte les besoins de l'enfant et la capacité de permettre l'accès à tous les domaines du programme, en ligne avec ses pairs. Nous pensons que cela peut être réalisé avec succès grâce à un regroupement et une planification soigneux, éclairés, si nécessaire, par des recommandations d'agences extérieures. Nous comprenons que chaque enfant est un individu et apprend à sa manière, les méthodes d'enseignement devant être adaptées pour répondre à tous les styles d'apprentissage. Notre offre scolaire met en évidence ce que nous sommes en mesure d'offrir aux enfants avec SEND et est fortement liée à notre politique SEN. Identification: Notre politique SEND met en évidence la manière dont les enfants sont identifiés et étroitement surveillés lorsque des préoccupations sont soulevées concernant un besoin éducatif spécial ou un handicap. Cela suit les directives du code de conduite SEND (2015) et est étroitement lié à l'offre locale de Telford et Wrekin http://www.telford.gov.uk/send Toute préoccupation concernant votre enfant doit d'abord être discutée avec l'enseignant de la classe, qui assurera la liaison avec SENDco. L'enseignant de la classe et SENDco peuvent ensuite rencontrer les parents pour discuter de la façon dont votre enfant est soutenu et des prochaines étapes. Interventions: L'intervention précoce devrait être la base de la stratégie d'intervention d'une école – cela exige que l'école effectue des évaluations continues en garderie, en crèche, à l'accueil et en année 1 et qu'elle suive les progrès des enfants. Il est recommandé que le nombre de programmes d'intervention soit limité, afin de s'assurer que les programmes sont de haute qualité, bien gérés et ont un impact sur la réussite. Vague 1 – Enseignement inclusif en classe entière Un premier enseignement de qualité pour tous les enfants. L'inclusion effective de tous les enfants dans un enseignement quotidien d'alphabétisation et de mathématiques de haute qualité. Dirigé par des enseignants, soutenus par des TA Vague 2 – Disposition ciblée La prestation ciblée est la prestation que les enfants recevront s'ils font moins de progrès que prévu dans le cadre de la première vague de prestation. Il peut être informé par des conseils d'agences externes et nécessitera une carte de fourniture pour mettre en évidence les interventions exactes, y compris des données de base pour garantir que les progrès sont mesurables. Les enfants peuvent bénéficier de certaines de ces interventions, souvent en petits groupes, en fonction de leurs besoins. Dirigé par des enseignants ou géré par des enseignants et dirigé par des assistants techniques Vague 3 Provision pour besoins plus élevés L'offre pour les besoins plus élevés est l'offre qu'un petit nombre d'enfants recevra si l'offre de la vague 2 ne leur permet pas de faire des progrès constants. Il s'appuiera sur les conseils d'agences externes et nécessitera une carte détaillée et individuelle des prestations pour mettre en évidence les interventions exactes, y compris des données de référence pour garantir que les progrès sont mesurables. C'est une disposition très individuelle. Dirigé par des enseignants ou géré par des enseignants et dirigé par des assistants techniques Les quatre domaines de besoin : Chez Captain Webb, nous suivons le code de conduite SEN (2014) pour identifier quatre principaux domaines de besoin. Ceux-ci sont: Communication et interaction Cognition et apprentissage Santé sociale, émotionnelle et mentale Développement sensoriel et physique Nous reconnaissons que les enfants peuvent avoir plus d'un besoin et qu'ils peuvent être interdépendants. L'offre locale de Telford et Wrekin souligne comment l'autorité locale s'efforce de répondre aux besoins des enfants atteints de SEND, en détaillant les ressources et les services disponibles pour ceux qui ont des besoins éducatifs spéciaux ou un handicap : http://www.telford.gov.uk/send Services offerts aux parents : Chez Captain Webb, nous nous efforçons de construire une relation positive et de soutien avec les parents afin d'assurer le meilleur pour les enfants et leurs familles. Pour vous aider, nous vous proposons : Journées de consultation des parents trimestriels Rencontres disponibles avec le professeur de classe / SENDco pour discuter des préoccupations des parents Cartes d'approvisionnement partagées avec les parents sur une base trimestrielle et progrès discutés Les parents sont tenus pleinement informés du soutien que les enfants reçoivent au sein de l'école et des agences externes en visite Opportunités pour les parents et les enfants d'apporter des idées et de discuter de l'offre à l'école Idées pour aider les enfants à la maison Réunions avec SENDco / l'enseignant et les parents pour discuter de l'implication d'une agence extérieure, par exemple après une visite LSAT Les services suivants peuvent être utiles aux parents nécessitant un soutien BEAM http://beeu.org.uk/self-help/ Offre locale de Telford et Wrekin http://www.telford.gov.uk/send IASS http://www.telfordsendiass.org.uk Parents Opening Doors (PODs) http://www.podstelford.org/ Ican2 http://www.ican2.org.uk/ activités pour les enfants handicapés Participation des élèves Chez Captain Webb, nous pensons qu'il est de la plus haute importance de garder les enfants impliqués dans la prise de décision les impliquant eux-mêmes et les décisions concernant l'ensemble de l'école. Les enfants sont pleinement informés de leurs objectifs et sont encouragés à partager leurs points de vue sur ceux-ci et à évaluer leurs progrès vers ces objectifs. Tous les enfants inscrits au registre SEND rempliront également un profil d'une page, expliquant ce qui est important pour eux, ce qu'ils trouvent difficile et la meilleure façon de les soutenir. Les élèves ont la possibilité de rejoindre le conseil d'école, où ils peuvent exprimer les pensées et les idées de leurs camarades. Le conseil d'école se réunit régulièrement, prenant les suggestions de leurs camarades de classe pour en discuter lors des réunions. Droit au programme d'études Le code de pratique SEN (2015) stipule : Tous les enfants et les jeunes ont droit à une éducation appropriée, adaptée à leurs besoins, promouvant des normes élevées et la réalisation de leur potentiel. Cela devrait leur permettre de : • faire de son mieux • devenir des personnes confiantes qui mènent une vie épanouissante, et • réussir sa transition vers l'âge adulte, que ce soit vers l'emploi, l'enseignement complémentaire ou supérieur ou la formation Chez Captain Webb, nous nous efforçons de garantir que tous les enfants aient accès au programme complet, la différenciation étant un outil clé pour permettre cela. L'évaluation continue aide les enseignants à identifier les domaines de difficultés possibles, et ainsi à déterminer comment les minimiser, en procédant à des adaptations pour garantir que le programme est accessible à tous. Nous répondons à des besoins supplémentaires de diverses manières, notamment : soutien en classe pour les petits groupes petit groupe ou retrait 1-1 accompagnement individuel de classe / retrait individuel différenciation des ressources ressources spécialisées Soutenir le soutien Carte de l'ensemble de l'offre scolaire (voir ci-joint) offre scolaire vagues d' intervention.docx Aménagements et accès spécifiques Nous nous efforçons de faire en sorte que tous les enfants aient la possibilité d'accéder à tous les domaines de la vie scolaire, en veillant à ce qu'ils soient en mesure de réaliser leur plein potentiel. Des équipements pour personnes à mobilité réduite sont disponibles dans tous les bâtiments. Des mains courantes, des rampes et un choix judicieux des salles de classe garantissent un accès accessible à tous. Le cas échéant, des conseils seront demandés aux parents et aux organismes extérieurs pour s'assurer que les besoins des enfants sont pleinement satisfaits. Une différenciation, des ressources et des équipements spécialisés peuvent être utilisés pour garantir que les enfants ont accès au programme complet. Les styles d'apprentissage sont une considération majeure dans la planification des cours, garantissant que tous les besoins sont pris en compte. Tous les enfants sont inclus dans tous les domaines de la vie scolaire, où d'autres méthodes de travail seront utilisées pour s'assurer que tous peuvent participer. Les agences externes/services de l'école assurent la liaison avec Chez Captain Webb, nous nous appuyons sur l'expertise d'un certain nombre d'agences externes qui nous soutiennent et nous conseillent pour nous aider à répondre aux besoins des enfants identifiés comme ayant un SEND. Ceux-ci inclus: Équipe Telford et Wrekin SEN Panneau d'accès équitable Service d'aide au comportement (BSS) Intervention précoce Équipe consultative de soutien à l'apprentissage (LSAT) Psychologie de l'éducation (EP) Orthophonistes (SALT) Ergothérapie (OT) Service d'inclusion sensorielle (SIS) Infirmière scolaire Connexion famille Service de santé mentale et de bien-être Bee U Conseillers IASS Le SENDco assiste également régulièrement aux réunions de mise à jour du réseau et assure la liaison avec d'autres SENDco pour obtenir des conseils et un soutien. Dispositions transitoires Lorsqu'un enfant arrive ou quitte l'école Captain Webb, nous assurerons une liaison étroite avec les parents et l'environnement précédent pour nous assurer qu'il y a une bonne compréhension des besoins de l'enfant et de la meilleure façon de les soutenir, y compris les prochaines étapes. Lorsqu'ils changent de classe au début d'une nouvelle année scolaire, les enfants auront des jours d'avance pour se rencontrer et se familiariser avec leur nouvel enseignant et le cadre de la classe. Si cela est jugé nécessaire, les enfants peuvent bénéficier de jours supplémentaires pour soutenir le processus et renforcer leur confiance en eux. Les enseignants de la classe auront des discussions détaillées sur les enfants, y compris le partage de la carte de disposition la plus récente et des progrès réalisés au cours de l'année. Tous les enfants inscrits au registre SEND rempliront également un profil d'une page décrivant ce qui est important pour eux, leurs difficultés et la façon dont ils pensent pouvoir être mieux soutenus. Il peut être nécessaire pour l'enfant d'avoir un livre d'informations sur sa nouvelle classe et ses installations pour en parler avec sa famille et ainsi minimiser l'anxiété avant de commencer un nouveau groupe d'année. Les transitions vers le secondaire impliquent une liaison étroite entre le capitaine Webb et la nouvelle école. Toutes les informations SEND détenues sur l'enfant seront envoyées à la nouvelle école et le SENDco / l'enseignant de la classe discutera des besoins actuels de l'enfant et des prochaines étapes, y compris la meilleure façon de soutenir l'enfant. Pour les enfants avec un EHCP, nous nous assurons que le SENDco de l'école d'accueil est invité à l'examen annuel du trimestre d'été pour obtenir un aperçu et des informations sur les besoins de l'enfant, assurant ainsi une transition en douceur.

- Maths including KIRF | captainwebb
Intent At Captain Webb Primary School, our overarching principle about learning is: ‘Knowing more and Remembering more’. We have designed our curriculum so that more time is given to embed key knowledge, make connections and be ready for the next stage of a child’s learning journey. Through their growing knowledge and understanding, we aim to make all our children confident and competent mathematicians, who can make links in their maths learning to other areas of the curriculum. We aim to provide all pupils with a challenging mathematics curriculum and high-quality teaching to produce individuals who are numerate, creative, independent, inquisitive, enquiring and confident. We also aim to provide a stimulating environment and adequate resources so that pupils can develop their mathematical skills to the full. Through our well-planned maths learning journeys, we provide opportunities which cater for the needs of all individuals and empowers them with the necessary skills and knowledge to become successful in their future adventures. We incorporate sustained levels of challenge through varied and high-quality activities and ensure that children are on track at each stage of their education in fluency, reasoning and problem solving. Thus, in turn will prepare them for the next stage of their education and a successful working life. Implementation (Planning an inclusive curriculum). Our inclusive knowledge-based curriculum plans for success. Through small, well-sequenced steps (as outlined in our medium-term plans) new mathematical concepts are introduced using a ‘Concrete, Pictorial and Abstract’ approach. This enables all children to experience hands-on learning when discovering new mathematical knowledge and allows them to have clear models and images to aid their understanding. This also ensures that models of proof are constructed to exemplify mathematical laws and principles. The Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract model also allows children to build on their knowledge of key concepts in small steps and allows all learners to keep up with the curriculum demands. This approach to Maths is reflected in our calculation policy and pedagogy, with Teachers modelling and exploring key knowledge through the I-We-YOU approach. At Captain Webb the scope of our curriculum is inclusive and ambitious. Through declarative, procedural and conceptual knowledge, teacher’s use a curriculum ,engineered by the National Curriculum and White Rose, to ensure that children are exposed to mathematical knowledge and concepts which will prepare them for their next stage in education. It is our belief that mathematicians are best developed through memorisation of core facts and formula. In EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 Maths is taught on a daily basis. In each aspect of the Maths Curriculum and throughout each key phase, the children embark on a contextualised mathematical journey. This ensures that there is breadth and depth to the curriculum offer. Each journey consists of the following: 1) Activating Prior Knowledge Use of a variety of assessments to revisit and build on pupils’ existing knowledge and understanding. 2) Instruction Use of well-planned manipulatives and representations which the children can then draw upon independently in the future. (See Jottings Policy) 3) Modelling of strategies The teaching of methods and procedures in order for the children to solve calculations in preparation for reasoning and problem solving (See Calculation Policy). 4) Guided Practice Opportunities for the children to make connections between mathematical facts, procedures and concepts, thus developing a rich network of mathematical knowledge. 5) Independent Practice The development of independence and motivation in order to develop metacognition-the ability to independently plan, monitor and evaluate their thinking and learning. 6) Structured reflection The use of contextualised tasks and resources which challenge and support pupils’ mathematics; deepening their thinking with models of proof, generalisation and conjectures. Through our creative curriculum approach, we also seek to explore and utilise further opportunities to use and apply mathematics across all subject areas which is promoted during our Theme work in the afternoon. Early Years The 2024 Development Matters, which supports the statutory framework, is used to drive the curriculum and is supported by Number sense. It is widely accepted that early acquisition of core maths facts is a significant indication of future success. In reflection of this, Number sense was introduced in Reception in September 2023. This program is reflective of phonics. Its rigorous and repetitive approach ensures children retain knowledge in order for them to move on to the next stage of their learning. The curriculum in Early years focuses on depth over breadth. Pupils are encouraged to develop their Problem Solving, Reasoning and fluency in a broad range of contexts in which they can explore, learn, enjoy, practise, discuss and extend their skills. Pupils are encouraged to exploit their mathematical potential in both indoor and outdoor enabling environments. They are provided with a wide range of activities that promote regular active participation, exploration of real-life problems, development of imaginative play and early experience of mathematical language. All pupils are supported positively and encouraged to gain confidence and competence in their skills. It is essential that children leave Early Years with a strong sense of number so that children are ready for the Year 1 curriculum. This is achieved through: A sequenced, progressive learning journey. Ensuring children are emersed in maths so that times like snack time and play are incidental opportunities to revisit knowledge. Planning activities are in place with a clear intent for each session. Ensuring independent activities consolidate prior learning or pre-teaching concepts to come. Parental engagement and opportunities for families/carers to engage in the curriculum both in school and at home. Enquiry based sessions which embedded through play. Key Stages 1 and 2 The scope of our curriculum design ensures that: There are systematic opportunities for retrieval, practice and overlearning. The learning journey allows children to practice and revisit key knowledge (as stated in our progression documents). Children revisit to the point of automaticity. Testing secures facts and methods into the long-term memory. Planning for Success Declarative Knowledge Declarative knowledge (fluency) is taught daily so that pupils know useful facts and formulae and develop an understanding of relationships and familiar patterns. Every child’s maths learning journeys start with revisiting previous knowledge in order to make connections with the new knowledge to be taught. Sufficient time and resources allow children to gain knowledge and be able retain key information at this stage. Procedural knowledge Procedural knowledge is the teaching of procedures and algorithms and is a fundamental part of the learning journey. The school has a clear calculation policy which ensures that there is a reliable, accurate and consistent forward projecting approach. This stage of the learning journey enables our pupils to process mathematical information accurately and at speed. Conceptual Knowledge At this stage, the children will know a combination of methods and facts in order to be exposed to a variety of problems and reasoning. These are taught using the variation model so that the children are exposed to a strategy and can over learn this in order to have a get way into solving a range of challenging, rich and sophisticated problems. Practice A core element of our curriculum design is to allow children sufficient time to practice to the point of automaticity. Practice and revisiting of key knowledge is completed daily as part of morning activities; during our KIRF time (Key Instant Recall Facts) where children focus on knowing key facts in order to access the curriculum and be fluent in key skills and in lesson time. Assessment NCETM states that: ‘ If a pupil fails to grasp a concept or procedure, then this needs to be identified quickly and gaps in understanding addressed systematically to prevent them falling behind.’ In reflection of this, assessment grids of non-negotiables are used to ascertain what must be known at this point to stay on the long -term trajectory. Success Children can identify and talk about their success against the targets given to them at the start of the unit. These are then shared with parents along with next steps. The Use of Knowledge Grids At Captain Webb we have introduced the use of knowledge organisers to support children in their lessons and at home. These have proved a valuable tool in making children resourceful and independent learners. This is because: The knowledge organisers include judiciously selected tier 2 and tier 3 vocabulary. This vocabulary will be taught explicitly to students. The knowledge organisers incorporate the building blocks for learning in that subject that all students are entitled to know and understand. The knowledge organisers are designed to aid retrieval practice and metacognitive learning. Here are some examples of the knowledge organisers that we are currently using in different areas in maths: Knowledge Organisers are used to promote planning, teaching and retrieving previous learning that will have the intended positive impact on our pupils’ outcomes, experiences and future opportunities. Due to the fact that pupils can access their maths knowledge organisers at any time, pupils are supported to become resilient and independent learners. An Inclusive Approach-Adaptive Teaching Curriculum Considerations Adaptive teaching is when teachers “adapt teaching to respond to the strengths and needs of all pupils”. Specifically, adaptive teaching requires teachers to: Know when and how to differentiate appropriately, using approaches which enable pupils to be taught effectively. Have a secure understanding of how a range of factors can inhibit pupils’ ability to learn and how best to overcome these. Demonstrate an awareness of the physical, social and intellectual development of children and know how to adapt teaching to support pupils’ education at different stages of development. Have a clear understanding of the needs of all pupils – including those with SEND, those of high ability, those with English as an additional language – and be able to use and evaluate distinctive teaching approaches to engage and support them. Scaffolding We understand that pupils are likely to learn at different rates and to require different levels and types of support from teachers to succeed. As a result of this, we seek to understand pupils’ differences, including their different levels of prior knowledge and potential barriers to learning. We adapt teaching in a responsive way, including providing targeted support to pupils who are struggling and offering the opportunity to think deeply within the concept for those who are ready for challenge. This will increase pupil success. At Captain Webb we follow the mastery curriculum which ensures every learner is confident with a concept before moving onto the next stage. With the mastery approach, most learners will be working towards the same outcome, with teaching being tailored and scaffolded to meet individual needs. We do acknowledge that there maybe some learners who may require a more personalised approach, including specific learning outcomes and provision to develop fundamental skills. We believe all learners should work alongside their peers. Research by EEF states that ‘the best mass learning happens when learners can talk through their ideas with a teacher or a partner and therefore it is encouraged this productive discussion through lessons when planning opportunities talk we ensure that all learners have the support they need to access these discussions which include scaffolding such as sentence frames, visual support and all peer partners’. We believe it is important that all learners are given the equal chance to learn core knowledge appropriate to their age. These are highlighted as end points in our Assessments and are crucial so that children can keep up, not catch up. Key Stage 1 Learners should have 1-1 correspondence when counting Learners should develop automaticity in addition and subtraction facts to and within 10. Ensure learners have a concept of ‘more than’ and ‘less then’ and can describe the relative sizing of number. Encourage learners to represent numbers in many different ways in pictures, as calculation, in words. Ensure learners can explain the place value of 10s and ones. Use resources such as 10s frames numicon and base 10 blocks confidently to support learning where needed. Key stage 2 Ensure learners are secure with all times tables by the end of year four as this acts as a foundation for other maths and concepts. Learners should have secure understanding of place value up to 10,000 and beyond. Learners begin to apply their knowledge of number and written methods to reasoning problems. Strategies to Scaffold learning. At Captain Webb, we support learners in a range of ways to help them to keep up with the curriculum demands. Our adapted lessons consider how all learners can: Retain vocabulary. Access the Maths curriculum despite literacy difficulties. Allocate time to develop conceptual understanding. Be fluent in number facts. Teachers refer to the ‘Whole School SEND Teacher Handbook’ ,the local Maths Hub and Captain Webb’s Strategies for Supporting SEND Document for guidance and support. https://www.wholeschoolsend.org.uk/resources/teacher-handbook-send ) Impact We measure the impact of our curriculum through: Formal and Summative assessments: Reception Baseline Data/ELGs Optional SATs KS1 and Teacher’s Assessment using the framework.

At Captain Webb we prioritise core declarative knowledge from an early age, so that pupils are familiar with the facts and methods that will form the strategies taught and applied later in the learning sequence.’ We strongly believe that mathematical fluency skills help pupils to think faster and more clearly; giving them a formative start in order to tackle complex problem-solving and reasoning questions. The school follows the Numbersense program which systematically teaches factual fluency and provides a progressive approach to achieve factual fluency in additive and multiplicative facts for each and every child. Numbersense Progression Document 2022 - 2025 YEAR 4 MULTIPLICATION PROGRESS CHECK “Leaving primary school with a fundamental grasp of basic numeracy is as important as leaving being able to read. And just as the phonics check has helped more children learn to read, this will ensure more pupils know their times tables.” Nick Gibb, schools minister. In June each year, Year 4 pupils are required to sit a multiplication tables check (MTC). This test is online and will require the children to answer 25 questions on their multiplication knowledge from two to twelves times table. Pupils are given 6 seconds per question with three seconds rest between each question, so the test should last less than 5 minutes. The MTC will establish which pupils’ times table knowledge is at the expected level and will also help identify which pupils are struggling with their times tables so they can get extra support. To help your child prepare for these checks, we progressive introduce multiplication facts from year 1 with the expectation that all facts will be known by the end of Year 4. (See the multiplication Planner). As a school, we also use Time Table Rock Stars. This is an interactive online program which allows your child to practice key facts at speed and allows the teacher to see which facts the children are having difficulty with. Questions on the six, seven, eight, nine and twelve times table are more likely to come up most often and as these are the hardest for most children to learn, it is a good idea to focus on learning these tables with your child.

- Remote Education | captainwebb
Remote Education Attendance is essential for pupils to get the most out of their school experience, including for their attainment, wellbeing, and wider life chances. There are, however, certain circumstances when it is not possible for a child to attend and it is in these circumstance where an offer of Remote Education can be made. Remote education should not be viewed as an equal alternative to attendance in school. For this reason schools may only consider it as a last resort when the alternative would be no education, and only after it has been established that the pupil is, or will be, absent from school. In such cases, remote education can have the benefit of allowing absent pupils to keep on track with their education and stay connected to their teachers and peers. The priority is always ATTENDANCE. Scenarios where remote attendance should be considered. Where schools have to close, or there are restrictions on attendance for pupils (i.e. during COVID) Providing remote education does not change the imperative to remain open or to reopen as soon as possible. Every effort will be made to ensure pupils can be taught in person by attending school or if appropriate and possible, attending a safe alternative site. After exploring all options to ensure the school remains open to all pupils, there may still be some exceptional occasions when school leaders or the local authority decide that it is not possible to open safely, or where opening would contradict guidance from local or central government. If restricting attendance for pupils is the only viable option, we will consider providing remote education to help pupils stay on track with the education they would normally receive. In individual cases where a child is unable to attend school but is able to learn. There should only be limited circumstances where a pupil is unable to attend school but is able and well enough to continue their education remotely. These circumstances should only involve a short-term absence and might include: pupils recovering from short-term infectious illnesses, pupils preparing for or recovering from some operations, or pupils recovering from injuries where attendance might inhibit recovery. In some exceptional cases, these circumstances might also include pupils whose attendance has been affected by a special educational need or disability (SEND) or a mental health issue. In these circumstances, and after the pupil’s absence from school has been established, we will consider providing pupils with remote education on a case-by-case basis. This will be part of a plan to reintegrate back to school, and only when it is judged that providing remote education would not adversely affect the pupil’s return to school. Provision of remote education is a short-term solution allowing absent pupils to keep on track with their education and stay connected to their teachers and peers. Pupils with long-term medical conditions or any other physical or mental health needs affecting attendance may require additional support to continue their education. At Captain Webb Primary School we refer our parents to the Oak National Academy website, as this provides high quality lessons that are meaningful, ambitious, and cover an appropriate range of subjects to enable pupils to keep on track with their education. We will work with the parent/s so they understand which elements of learning their child will need. We will provide additional support in cases of SEND, and work collaboratively with families to support the children/parents accessing the learning successfully. We will help to overcome barriers to digital access by loaning school owned devices, accompanied by a user agreement, if and where necessary and/or possible. The senior leader with overarching responsibility for the quality and delivery of remote education is Mrs Sarah Passey (Headteacher).

- SMSC | captainwebb
SMSC at Captain Webb SMSC- (Spiritual, Moral, Social, and Cultural) At Captain Webb, we ensure that our curriculum is a vehicle for SMSC education. SMSC stands for spiritual, moral, social and cultural education. The following explores each aspect of SMSC and outlines how pupils may demonstrate their development in each area. Spiritual Exploring beliefs and experience; respecting values; discovering oneself and the surrounding world; using imagination and creativity; reflecting. Our children's spiritual development is shown by their beliefs, religious or otherwise, which inform their perspective on life and their interest in and respect for different people’s feelings and values sense of enjoyment and fascination in learning about themselves, others and the world around them, including the intangible use of imagination and creativity in their learning willingness to reflect on their experiences. Moral Recognising right and wrong; understanding consequences; investigating moral and ethical issues; offering reasoned views. Our children's moral development is shown by their ability to recognise the difference between right and wrong and their readiness to apply this understanding in their own lives understanding of the consequences of their actions interest in investigating, and offering reasoned views about, moral and ethical issues. Social Using social skills in different contexts; working well with others; resolving conflicts; understanding how communities work. Our children's social development is shown by their use of a range of social skills in different contexts, including working and socialising with pupils from different religious, ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds willingness to participate in a variety of social settings, cooperating well with others and being able to resolve conflicts effectively develop interest in, and understanding of, the way communities and societies function at a variety of levels. acceptance of and engagement with the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. They will develop and demonstrate skills and attitudes that will allow them to participate fully in and contribute positively to life in modern Britain Cultural Appreciating cultural influences; participating in culture opportunities; understanding, accepting, respecting and celebrating diversity. Our children's cultural development is shown by their: understanding and appreciation of the wide range of cultural influences that have shaped their own heritage willingness to participate in, and respond to, for example, artistic, musical, sporting, mathematical, technological, scientific and cultural opportunities interest in exploring, understanding of, and respect for cultural diversity and the extent to which they understand, accept, respect and celebrate diversity, as shown by their attitudes towards different religious, ethnic and socio-economic groups in the local, national and global communities. knowledge of Britain’s democratic Parliamentary system and its central role in shaping our history and values, and in continuing to develop Britain SMSC and Religious Education It is our aim that Religious Education should contribute to the spiritual, moral and social and cultural development of our pupils. Religious Education can help children develop their own informed values, religious and non-religious. Children should learn to respect themselves and be sensitive to the needs and experiences of others, including considering the effect our actions have upon others. Religious Education can also help develop pupils’ understanding of social issues like stewardship of the Earth’s resources, our citizenship within local, national and global communities and a genuine respect for persons and sensitivity to their values and beliefs. Religious Education should also equip pupils to challenge inequalities and disadvantages associated with race, gender, class and ability. SMSC and PSHE Jigsaw brings together SMSC, emotional literacy, mindfulness, social skills and spiritual development. A variety of teaching strategies are used and are mindful of each child’s preferred learning style. Jigsaw is designed as a whole school approach, with all year groups working on the same theme (Puzzle) at the same time. This enables each Puzzle to start with an introductory assembly, generating a whole school focus for adults and children alike. There is a Weekly Celebration that highlights a theme from that week’s lesson across the school, and encourages children to reflect that learning in their behaviour and attitudes.

Reading Curriculum Statement Reading Curriculum Statement Intent At Captain Webb, we value reading as a key life skill and are dedicated to enabling our pupils to become lifelong readers. We want all of our children to be confident fluent readers who read widely, read often, read for pleasure and read to learn. We want them to be exposed to a variety of literature, genres and authors. We believe that the teaching of reading is integral to a child’s understanding and appreciation of the world around them. We aim to provide children with experiences that will lead to rich language development so that at the end of their primary education with us, they are empowered with a breadth of vocabulary that they can build on in their future prospects. Our reading curriculum strives to foster a love for reading and we believe that that all children should experience an abundance of quality, engaging texts across the curriculum. We want reading to be the golden thread running through a child’s journey at Captain Webb. When they leave us, we want pupils to possess the reading skills and love of literature which will help them to enjoy and access any aspects of learning they encounter in the future. Implementation (Planning an inclusive curriculum). Our inclusive knowledge-based curriculum plans for success. We teach the National Curriculum, supported by a clear skills and knowledge progression. This ensures that skills and knowledge are built on year by year and sequenced appropriately to maximise learning for all children. This enables our pupils to know more and remember more. End points within objectives are identified for each year group through a whole school reading progression plan. Please click the link below for further information. We feel passionately that developing a love of reading from an early age will benefit our children hugely: personally, socially and educationally. Therefore, reading is at the heart of everything we do. Through the use of carefully chosen texts, we expose our children to literature that will spark their passions and develop a love of English. Click the link below to find out the rationale behind our Reading curriculum. Phonics & Reading Through the delivery of our reading curriculum we ensure a consistent and robust teaching and learning of early reading and phonics in the Early Years and Key Stage One, so that pupils are able to read with increased speed and fluency and access the wider curriculum. We follow the Read, Write Inc Phonics programme; a systematic, synthetic phonics scheme that is validated by the Department for Education. Skilled staff deliver daily sessions to ensure rapid progression. Children’s progress through the scheme is assessed continuously to ensure that gaps are addressed quickly and effectively. Books that children read match their level of phonetic knowledge. Skilled reading depends on both fluency and phonic knowledge alongside language comprehension. For more information on the teaching of Phonics, please click on the link below which will transfer you to our Phonics curriculum page. Reading Knowledge and Skills 24 - 25 Whole School Reading Spine 24 - 25 Phonics Curriculum Once children have graduated from the RWI scheme, and are able to decode accurately and speedily, reading a lot is the principal way they develop as readers. Putting in the ‘reading miles’ allows pupils to practise their reading, building experience with increasingly complex texts, encountering new knowledge, gaining new language, including vocabulary, and developing their fluency. Over the course of year 2 and into key stage 2, the focus of the teaching of reading therefore shifts from decoding towards ensuring pupils get this print experience and support with spoken language, both through teacher-led whole class reading sessions and independent reading. Children explore a broad range of challenging texts including fiction, non-fiction and poetry by having purposeful and in-depth discussions with the teacher and their peers to enable them to access the vocabulary, themes and content. Please click on the Year 2 and KS2 reading long term overview below to find out more about the texts your child will be reading. Year 2 & KS2 Reading Overview KS2 Reading Learning Sequence Book Warmers At the beginning of our reading units, we explore the main themes, contexts and background information to help the pupils have a foundational understanding of the text before they begin reading. For example, when the text was written, any settings / countries the text takes place and any cultural and social conventions that may be outlined within a text. These introductory sessions are called 'book warmers' and the pupils have an opportunity to read facts and information about the text as well as use iPADs to access QR codes that link to webpages to further videos and explanations. Most importantly, the book warmers will introduce the pupils to tier 3 vocabulary (subject specific words) that they will come across in subsequent lessons. Vocabulary Lab The teaching of vocabulary is at the forefront of all our daily reading lessons. Tier 2 and tier 3 vocabulary is identified within texts and definitions are provided with picture examples to enhance pupil's understanding of these words. The vocabulary is explored and discussed as the pupil's read to enhance pupil's language development and comprehension. Teaching Prosody All reading sessions focus on improving reading fluency and pupils will listen to the teachers read aloud with expression and intonation. The pupils are taught prosody through a variety of fluency strategies such as echo read, choral read and reader's theatre. They have daily opportunities to re-read the text on their own or with a partner. Fluent and expressive reading (prosody!) is inextricably linked to comprehension. Why? Because prosody helps children build a more complete and accurate picture of what’s being conveyed on the page. How we adapt the pace, emphasis, phrasing and intonation of our reading helps communicate the broader and deeper meaning of what we read. Recent research from the EEF backs this up, finding that prosodic reading improves a child’s comprehension and overall literacy achievement in school. The pupils also have an opportunity to re-read the text at home as part of their reading homework. Understanding of the text On day 1 of our 2 day sequence, the teacher ask questions and models thought processes as they read to enhance pupil's comprehension. The dialogic talk between the adult and pupils is a priority for this session, the teacher explicitly teaches comprehension skills relevant to the extract. These specific comprehension skills are taught using VIPERS reading domains (vocabulary, inference, prediction, explanation, retrieval and summary) On day 2 of our sequence, the teacher models the answering of written comprehension questions based on the extract they have previously read on day one. Teachers plan questions focusing on mixed domains. Pupils complete the questions independently. Quick Quiz and Summarise The reading lessons also include quick quizzes with the focus predominantly upon the quick recall of key facts/key information. (retrieval questions) The pupils talk with a partner to talk about what has happened, what they already know and summarise any key events or facts. Daily Story Time We place reading at the heart of the curriculum, so it is prioritised allowing pupils to access the full curriculum offer. All pupils receive daily story time sessions with an adult modelling fluency and intonation. The pupils listen to a wide range of stories that have all been carefully selected and chosen for their year groups. All texts are outlined in our whole school reading spine, at the top of this webpage. Puffin Keeper Book Warmer Reading for Pleasure Embedding a school culture that values and supports reading for pleasure is extremely important to us. Pupils develop a love of reading; a broad knowledge of authors and understand more about the world in which they live to widen their horizons and raise their aspirations. To enable this, we set aside time for pupils to enjoy and read books independently, discuss texts they are reading and share recommendations. The love2read session is timetabled for all classes once a week and also sets time for pupils to visit our newly refurbished school library. The children can enjoy the freedom of enjoying texts in a tranquil, child centred environment. All classrooms have attractive book corners where the children have access to 100 quality books, both fiction, non-fiction and poetry books to help embed their love of books, stories and reading. Around school, you will find displays which celebrate authors - including our author of the term displays, pupil’s favourite books, authors and recommended reads. Reading across the curriculum Reading is prioritised across our broad and balanced curriculum allowing pupils to read and understand all subjects. Pupils are also expected to read in other subjects to access new information and build their subject knowledge. This reading will also contribute to reading miles and fluency. All subject areas have a recommended text list for all year groups attached to their subject curriculum map. Poetry and Rhymes Through sharing, reading, writing and performing rhymes and poems, we aim to build children’s emotional connection to language and the world around us. Poems are used throughout our curriculum to develop vocabulary, fluency and prosody, imagination and empathy. We also encourage children to review poetry – to form opinions about their own likes and dislikes and to understand and explain their preferences and respect the thoughts and feelings of others. We are committed as a school to developing a love of reading and to reading aloud each day. Alongside our class reading texts, we have four class poetry books to be shared throughout the year. Of course, teachers can add to the core books to further develop children’s exposure and enjoyment of poetry. We have identified a core set of poems for each year group. Each year group will learn by heart poems to be performed for assembly or to be shared with parents or visitors. Children will also be encouraged to revisit poems previously learnt. Each year group will also study a varied selection of poems during guided reading lessons, where vocabulary and meaning can be explored and explained, together with the development of children’s wider reading skills. Poetry also forms part of our writing curriculum and each year group has different forms of poetry to explore and create. This allows children the opportunity to learn more about particular structures of poetry and allows them to write their own poems using a wide range of poetic devices. Children are encouraged to perform their own poetry alongside the poems learnt by their year group. We also seek opportunities throughout the year for children to watch or hear poets reciting and discussing their own work. Please see our Poetry Curriculum Map for further information. Poetry Curriculum 24 - 25 Assessment At all stages, reading attainment is assessed to ensure that gaps are addressed quickly and effectively so that pupils’ progress is accelerated. Targeted support and intervention for reading is a priority – we have a dedicated reading team who ensure any child falling or a risk of falling behind their peers is identified. RWI Fast Track tutoring breaks phonics into small steps to support every child with decoding, including those with SEND. There is a sharp focus on ensuring pupils gain fluency and phonic knowledge alongside language comprehension as modelled by the Scarborough Reading Rope (2001). In KS2, reading fluency is assessed at the beginning of each half term using oral reading fluency (ORF) measures. ORF assessments measure reading rate and accuracy and are expressed in terms of the number of words read correctly per minute (wcpm). On average, pupils should read at least 90 words per minute. Any pupils who require further support with their reading fluency are provided with additional reading practice. During this interventions, the pupils re-read passages using strategies such as echo read and timed reads. Our aim is to ensure all pupils leave our school fluent, confident readers as we know oral reading fluency has consistently been found to have a high correlation with reading comprehension. During whole class reading sessions, formative assessment takes place daily, while termly summative assessment takes place in the form of NFER testing which allows analysis of gaps in comprehension knowledge to be quickly addressed. All pupils are also assessed on their reading of the common exception words for their year group. Please see the spelling curriculum page for these word lists. How do we enrich the curriculum? Book recommendation boards are displayed throughout school to inform pupils of new and popular texts across the age ranges. The children are given the opportunity to loan these books from Mrs Passey and write reviews on these books for our school newsletter. At Captain Webb, we also have a range of opportunities within the academic year to further enhance reading opportunities for our children. Regular trips to the local library, engaging with national reading events including World Book Day, Roald Dahl Day and National Poetry day. Each year we invite external theatre companies into school to deliver whole school productions and drama workshops for our pupils, recent examples of which are Christmas Carol and Jack and the Beanstalk. We have also had Dance workshops based on 'Bringing Books to Life'. Year 3 story focus was Charlie and the chocolate factory, Year 4 focus was Alice in Wonderland and Year 5 focus was The Jungle Book. How can you help your child? EYFS and KS1 To support their reading journey your child will bring home two books home. The first book will be a fully decodable book matched to your child’s phonic knowledge. When your child is in the early stages of learning to read you can help by encouraging them to sound out the letters in words and then to ‘blend’ the sounds together to make a whole word. Please refer to the Phonics Curriculum page on the school website for further support on early reading strageties. The second book will be a picture book for you to share at bedtime. This is an opportunity to share a love of reading with your child, talk about the story and offer opinions. KS2 All pupils in KS2 will bring home a copy of their whole class novel to read at home. The class teacher will provide information in regards to homework expectations for reading the guided reading text. E.g. We would like you to read chapters 1 – 3 tonight. We also encourage all pupils to loan books from our school library to enjoy at home. In response to a recent parent's survey, we will also be sending home an additional text from our 100 books for our pupils to read at home. The school’s Homework Policy states that all children are expected to read at home every day. This is for a maximum of 10 minutes. Reading regularly at home helps to develop children’s reading skills. Making the time to talk to your children about the books they choose and listening to them reading aloud regularly can make all the difference. Children need to understand why we read. They need to experience the range of feelings that a book can create or the power that can be gained from accessing information. Reading must not only be confined to stories. Many children love reading comics, magazines, newspapers, information books and poetry. All of these reading activities should be encouraged. Children in Key Stage 2 will all be at very different stages of development, but even for the most fluent readers there is a need for parental support. Most parents or carers are able to create quality time to share a book individually with one child. This is the time when children can develop a much deeper understanding of the books that they are reading. Rather than reading at home being ‘reading practice’, it should extend and enrich the reading experiences of school. One of the most powerful ways in which parents can do this is to show real enthusiasm themselves. Your sense of excitement about books and stories, your anticipation about what will happen next in a story and a discussion about your own likes and dislikes, will greatly influence your child. Teachers will check the Home School Reading Record daily and record for our end of term reading rewards including books, book vouchers or an author visit . This year we celebrated National Poetry Day with a very special guest. A well-known poet called James Carter. He worked with all year groups to create different types of poetry including rhyme, similes, kennings and cinquains. Please see the video clips below of our wonderful work. Impact By the time children leave Captain Webb, they are competent readers who can recommend books to their peers, have a thirst for reading a range of genres including poetry, and participate in discussions about books, including evaluating an author’s use of language and the impact this can have on the reader. They can also read books to enhance their knowledge and understanding of all subjects on the curriculum, and communicate their research to a wider audience. ‘I go to Phonics every day to learn my sounds. I can now read words and I’ve just moved to Yellow phonics books.’ – Year 1 pupil. ‘I’ve read many books since I’ve been at Captain Webb. Some of my favourite texts are Stig of the Dump by Clive King, Harry Potter by JK Rowling and Street Child by Berlie Doherty.’ –Year 6 pupil. ‘This year, I’ve enjoyed reading lots of different non-fiction texts. I’m currently reading a non-fiction text on the heart and circulatory system which has helped me answer questions in Science.’ Year 5 pupil. Attainment in reading is measured using statutory assessments such as the end of EYFS and Key Stage 2 and following the outcomes in the Year 1 Phonics Screening check. Assessment data shows that.. 90% of children passed the Year 1 Phonics Screening check in 2023. 72% reached ARE at KS2 with 28% reaching greater depth. The impact of this implementation was also noted in our 2019 OFSTED: The teaching of reading is done very well. Staff are trained in how to teach phonics and daily routines and systems make sure everyone gets what they need. Whether reading in class or at home, staff check that pupils have books they understand. If any pupil needs a helping hand, adults find extra time straight away and this stops them from falling behind. As pupils’ confidence grows, teachers introduce them to new books and authors. Most days, teachers read to the class during ‘page-turner time’. They encourage pupils to talk about books and share their views. Reading Policy 24-25
- Writing | captainwebb
Writing Curriculum Statement Intent At Captain Webb Primary School, we intend for our children to leave as confident, capable and independent writers, who not only understand the purpose and importance of writing but also enjoy the writing process. We intend for children to use their writing skills across the curriculum. Our overarching principle about learning is: ‘Knowing more and remembering more’. We have designed our curriculum so that more time is given to embed key knowledge, make connections and be ready for the next stage of a child’s learning journey. Through their growing knowledge and understanding, we want all children to be able to communicate their knowledge, ideas and emotions confidently through their writing. Unapologetically ambitious, our writing curriculum focuses on excellence by learning from outstanding writers. We want our children to draw upon a rich exposure to quality literature so that throughout the writing process, they can write as a reader and read as a writer. We recognise the importance of nurturing a culture where children take pride in their writing, can write clearly and accurately and adapt their language and style for a range of contexts, audiences and purposes. We believe in setting high standards in the presentation of writing along with setting the important foundations in spelling and grammar. Implementation (Planning an inclusive curriculum). Our inclusive knowledge-based curriculum plans for success. We teach the National Curriculum, supported by a clear skills and knowledge progression. This ensures that skills and knowledge are built on year by year and sequenced appropriately to maximise learning for all children. Within English lessons, we are teaching all children to have a deep and secure understanding of the concepts that they are being taught. In order to do this, our curriculum is designed to reduce cognitive load by ensuring we structure and design lessons in small coherent steps, which organically allows opportunity for the promotion of retention. This allows for an inclusive learning environment where all children are supported to transfer learning from short-term to long-term memory. Please see the link below for the whole school writing progression knowledge and skills grids. Spoken language is the first and most important resource that young writers have. Our writing curriculum, places quality literature and spoken language at the forefront of all writing units. Children need to have a wide experience of story, knowledge of written language and how this works and knowledge of how print works as a means of communication. Young children can compose long before they can transcribe and many teaching approaches at this stage focus on easing the burden of transcription and enabling children to compose more freely. Therefore, initially a child needs the help and support of another person, usually an adult, in order to write conventionally. This support can be gradually withdrawn as transcription becomes easier and the child increases in independence, finding their voice as a writer. Our teaching of writing across the school is linked to a class text, carefully chosen to inspire and excite the children. All writing units will start with a stimulus, which could be a high quality reading text or a memorable experience. Our teacher’s plan exciting memorable experiences every half term. These class visits provide the children with meaningful experiences to support them in writing for a range of purposes and illustrate how their writing skills can be applied to real life contexts. Children are expected to transfer their key topic knowledge and vocabulary into their writing and vice versa to transfer their spelling, grammar and punctuation knowledge into their topic work. We expect the high standards for writing in Literacy lessons to be evident within the work in all books. At Captain Webb Primary School, we believe that writing is strengthened by instilling a love for reading within our pupils. In EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 English is taught on a daily basis. Every year group has a Yearly Curriculum Map that outlines where narrative or non-narrative are taught and links to other curriculum areas such as reading and humanities. Detailed Medium Term planning supports teachers to plan a sequence of progressive weekly lessons and over time, giving the children time to master new concepts. Within this document, key objectives and vocabulary are outlined. Whole School Writing Progression Grids 24 - 25 2 Year Old Provision Read More Pre-School Read More Reception Read More Year 1 Read More Year 2 Read More Year 3 Read More Year 4 Read More Year 5 Read More Year 6 Read More Medium Term Plan Example The Writing Process We organise intended learning into units of writing. These group the knowledge, skills and understanding that we want children to remember, do and use. We start with a high quality and inspiring text , identifying points within the text at which a piece of extended writing could be crafted, building lessons from this point up. For extended pieces, teachers use key skill checklists to support the writing process. • PRIOR ASSESSMENT & TARGET SETTING – Using the previous writing unit to determine what the pupils need to develop, gaps in learning and any objectives that need specifically focusing on in this next unit. • GENRE – This is the text type. We consider what we want pupils to write and why (purpose, audience and intended impact). • CONTEXT – This includes any hooks into writing and any knowledge or experience that pupils require to write a particular piece. (Quality texts, memorable experiences or cross curricular links) • TEXT / READINIG ANALYSIS – This requires effective models of the genre to build up pupils’ understanding of texts in this particular style. Opportunities to unpick modelled texts, consider the author’s choice of language and vocabulary and identify any SPAG features. • ORGANISING IDEAS – This may include speaking and listening opportunities including drama. For example – retelling a text orally, hot seating a character, acting in role. Children will begin to organise ideas for their writing through lists, flow charts and / or writing frames. Teachers should be careful with the format used so we don’t limit ideas to small boxes which are not useful to follow when composing. Tools and approaches should enable pupils to plan ideas for the composition and the vocabulary they will use within the writing. Scaffolds to support this are useful. • VOCABULARY DEVELOPMENT – Consider words that will support pupils to improve their composition, draw attention to any taught spelling patterns. These should be taught within context with opportunities for pupils to apply within the composition of sentence structures. • SENTENCE COMPOSITION – Plan for sentence composition linked to the genre type. Composition practice should link to the end outcome piece so pupils can draw on this practice to support independent composition. Sentence types, grammar knowledge and skills should be taken from the progression document. • PUNCTUATION – Plan for punctuation linked to the genre. Practice composition should link to the end outcome piece so pupils can draw on this practice to support independent composition. Knowledge and skills should be taken from the progression document and assessment of pupils’ previous writing. • MODELLED WRITING – Teachers usually prepare the models to support the compositional and transcriptional skills, and component knowledge being developed in the sequence. Using the model teachers diagnose the model with pupils so that they understand how this was composed. This builds their understanding of what a good one looks like. These models of writing are displayed on our classroom washing lines. • SHARED WRITING – Using the planning and model how to compose the piece (parts of the piece) with the pupils. Teacher modelling is really important to develop writer’s voice and promote thinking. (Thinking out loud – articulating the processes of a writer.) • GUIDED WRITING – Working with groups of pupils to specifically guide their writing skills. Assessment is key to delivering guided writing. Identifying the needs of the pupils, for example developing transcriptional skills for our lowest attaining pupils and providing challenge for our higher attainers. For example: teachers to guide writing to understand how to critically shape sentences for effect. • INDEPENDENT WRITING - Pupils compose their own piece. This can be in parts as they work through paragraphs of the text or as a full piece. Redrafting and editing can be of sections to lead to more focused impact. • RE-DRAFT AND EDIT – Teacher modelling of these skills is really important. Pupils are often not shown how to undertake this process effectively and therefore it can lose impact. After composition pupils may redraft sections of the writing to up level skills and improve the piece. Editing writing – pupils read through the writing and make correction in the writing. The pupils use the COMB materials to build their independence with proof – reading skills. • PUBLISHED PIECE – Writing can be published in a range of ways. It is really important to develop pride in writing and allow pupils opportunities to make choices on how they want to publish material. • APPLY TO A NEW CONTEXT – Pupils should have the opportunity to apply the style of writing to new context as this allows them to practise the skills. Teachers must ensure pupils have the knowledge to write in this context. Pupils should use and apply taught skills for subjects across the curriculum. • ASSESSMENT & FEEDBACK – Teachers should analyse pupils’ writing against the writing moderation documents / termly targets for the year group. They should provide feedback to pupils on their successes and next steps. (Target Setting) Staff follow our Marking and Feedback policy, to provide pupils with live feedback as much as possible so that children are actively involved in drafting, editing and improving their writing. From an early age, children are encouraged to proofread their work carefully to check for spelling and punctuation errors. By the time children get to Key Stage 2, they will plan, draft and edit independently, enabling them to fully take part in the writing process. Modelled Writing using our washing lines. The Importance of Vocabulary We recognise the vital importance of exposing our pupils to a rich and varied vocabulary and understand that their acquisition and command of vocabulary are key to their learning and progress across the whole curriculum. We use model texts and class novels to teach vocabulary in context and encourage discussion around word choices when writing. Dictionaries, thesauruses and word mats are readily available throughout all writing lessons. Guided writing sessions are used to target specific needs of both groups and individuals. All children are given focus spellings and are encouraged to integrate these into their writing. The weekly spellings are taken from the spelling rules being taught in their discrete RWI spelling session. (Refer to the spelling section below for more information.) The children are given the opportunity to write at length daily and all pupils complete an extended, independent piece of writing at the end of a unit of work known as their hot write. Teachers use the hot writes to measure the progress made within a unit of writing and targets are set in readiness for the next piece of writing. Here is an example from Year 2 Staff follow our Marking and Feedback policy, to provide pupils with live feedback as much as possible so that children are actively involved in drafting, editing and improving their writing. From an early age, children are encouraged to proofread their work carefully to check for spelling and punctuation errors. By the time children get to Key Stage 2, they will plan, draft and edit independently, enabling them to fully take part in the writing process. Early Years Our curriculum maps are carefully planned to have breadth and depth and introduce quality core concepts, bodies of knowledge and key concepts which will be built on in Year 1. The ambitious curriculum is a carefully devised sequential offer to ensure the children become fluent in essential foundational knowledge necessary for writing. This enables our pupils to know more and remember more ready for future learning. End points are identified in the EYFS writing progression document. The teachers plan effective writing units based on high quality writing texts. The plans include rich opportunities (through self-initiated learning and taught lessons) for pupils to develop their understanding of phonics application through Read, Write, Inc. Their writing involves transcription (spelling and handwriting) and composition of sounds that they have previously been taught - articulating ideas and structuring them in speech, before writing. Reception and Year 1 are taught spelling patterns as part of their daily phonics lesson. EYFS Curriculum At Captain Webb, we identify children who need additional support and provide intervention in the most effective and efficient way that we can. We run phonics, reading and writing intervention groups and ensure that our lessons are effectively differentiated to maximise each child’s potential. Spelling The ability to write ideas down fluently requires a good understanding of spelling. In Reception and Key Stage 1, we follow the Read Write Inc Phonics programme to teach pupils how to write phonemes as graphemes. Please click on this link to find out more about Read Write Inc Phonics Spelling. From Year 2 to Year 6, we use the follow on programme Read Write Inc. Spelling. These schemes ensure full coverage of, and progression within the National Curriculum requirements. To find out more about the Read Write Inc Spellings programme please click on this link. Read Write Inc Spelling Programme Handwriting Handwriting is taught in line with the National Curriculum objectives. In the Early Years, pupils complete fine motor activities to develop hand/finger strength and are taught how to hold a pencil correctly. In Reception, all pupils are taught how to form their letters correctly using the Read Write Inc Phonics programme. For more information, please click on the links below. Read Write Inc. Phonics From Year 2 onwards, through daily handwriting lessons, we begin to explicitly teach correct joins, consistent letter size and clear ascenders and descenders. We follow the Nelson Handwriting scheme. Additional support is given through handwriting interventions where needed. Please refer to the handwriting policy below for more information on how handwriting is taught at Captain Webb Handwriting Policy 24 - 25 Impact In order to identify the impact our curriculum is having on our pupils; we check the extent to which learning has become permanently embedded in children’s long-term memory in addition to looking for excellence in their outcomes. When undertaking these we ask the following key questions: • How well do pupils remember the content that they have been taught? • Do books and pupil discussions radiate excellence? • Does learning ‘travel’ with pupils and can they deliberately reuse it in more sophisticated contexts? Each year group has writing assessment criteria that aligns with the whole school writing progression map. We make assessment judgements termly. Three pieces of writing will be assessed every term throughout the year using the assessment grids. These grids match the termly targets set out in the year groups progression map. Evidence of the core knowledge and skills for each term will demonstrate if a child is working towards, at or above age related expectations. Teachers record the summative assessments on O Track. These assessments are moderated by SLT each term.

Les principaux changements sont : Les écoles doivent nommer un délégué à la protection des données, qui conseillera sur la conformité avec le RGPD et d'autres lois pertinentes sur la protection des données Les avis de confidentialité doivent être rédigés dans un langage clair et simple et inclure des informations supplémentaires - la «base légale» de l'école pour le traitement, les droits de l'individu par rapport à ses propres données Les écoles n'auront qu'un mois pour se conformer aux demandes d'accès aux matières et, dans la plupart des cas, ne peuvent pas facturer Lorsque l'école a besoin du consentement d'un individu pour traiter des données, ce consentement doit être donné librement, spécifique, éclairé et sans ambiguïté Il existe de nouvelles protections spéciales pour les données des enfants Le bureau du commissaire à l'information doit être informé dans les 72 heures d'une violation de données Les organisations devront démontrer comment elles se conforment à la nouvelle loi Les écoles devront effectuer une évaluation de l'impact sur la protection des données lorsqu'elles envisagent d'utiliser les données de nouvelles manières ou de mettre en œuvre une nouvelle technologie pour surveiller les élèves Comment nous visons à y parvenir À l'école primaire Captain Webb, nous prenons la protection des données au sérieux et nous nous assurons que nous sommes pleinement conformes à la fois à la loi sur la protection des données et à la nouvelle législation GDPR. Dans cette mesure, nous avons entrepris les actions suivantes : Nous sommes enregistrés en tant que contrôleur de données auprès du Bureau des commissaires à l'information - notre numéro d'enregistrement est Z6446791 Nous avons employé un délégué à la protection des données, dans le cadre d'un contrat avec l'autorité locale. Nous avons mis à jour notre politique de protection des données et veillons à ce qu'elle soit révisée chaque année pour garantir la conformité avec la législation (voir ci-dessous). La politique comprend les nouvelles directives sur la présentation d'une demande de données et le processus que les parents/tuteurs devront suivre. Nous avons mis à jour notre politique d'accès à l'information et veillons à ce qu'elle soit révisée chaque année pour garantir la conformité avec la législation (voir ci-dessous). Nous avons effectué un audit des données de toutes les informations reçues, détenues ou partagées par l'école. Cela comprend la désignation d'une personne responsable de chaque flux de données, l'analyse de la manière dont les données sont reçues, stockées, leur pertinence, si nous avons un objectif légal de conserver les données et si elles sont supprimées / détruites au moment opportun. Nous avons confirmé que les organisations avec lesquelles nous partageons des données sont également conformes au RGPD et à la réglementation sur la protection des données. Nous avons mis à jour notre avis de confidentialité (voir ci-dessous) Nous avons organisé une formation annuelle sur la protection des données et le nouveau RGPD pour tout le personnel qui est sous-traitant (c'est-à-dire avoir accès/utiliser les informations que nous détenons). Nous avons examiné nos finalités légales pour la conservation et l'utilisation des données. Alors que la plupart des données que nous utilisons le sont en vertu d'une obligation légale (c'est-à-dire en vertu de la loi sur l'éducation de 1996 ou Keeping Children Safe in Education (DfE, 2016) et nous permettent d'accomplir notre tâche publique, certaines données que nous utilisons ne le sont pas. Dans ces cas, nous demanderons toujours le consentement parental.Nous avons mis à jour notre formulaire de consentement parental (voir ci-dessous) pour garantir que les parents peuvent clairement voir ce qui est demandé et peuvent s'y inscrire. Le consentement peut être retiré par le parent, à tout moment, en utilisant le formulaire de consentement ci-dessous ou en contactant le bureau de l'école Bien que l'éducation de votre enfant ne dépende pas de votre consentement, nous demandons également le consentement à certaines activités. Bien que cela ne rentre pas dans le champ d'application du RGPD, le refus de donner son consentement à certaines demandes (ex. voyages et visites, visionnage d'une vidéo) pourrait avoir un impact sur l'inclusion de votre enfant dans certaines activités éducatives .

- Protective Characteristics | captainwebb
PROTECTED CHARACTERISTICS PROMOTING THE NINE PROTECTED CHARACTERISITICS The Equality Act became law in 2010. It covers everyone in Britain and protects people from discrimination, harassment and victimisation. The Equality Act protects people against discrimination because of the protected characteristics that we all have. Under the Equality Act, there are nine protected characteristics: Age Disability Gender reassignment Race - including colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin Religion or belief Marriage or civil partnership Sex Sexual orientation Pregnancy and maternity No form of discrimination is tolerated at Captain Webb Primary School and our pupils show respect for those who share the protected characteristics. We do not teach about all the protected characteristics in every year group. The curriculum is planned and delivered so that our pupils develop age appropriate knowledge and understanding during their time at Captain Webb Primary School (see below). Each year group also have a selection of books to support in the delivery of the nine Protected Characteristics. Protected Characteristics - Content by year group.

- Wrap Around Care & Clubs | captainwebb
WRAP AROUND CARE Pas de clubs parascolaires pour le moment The school runs a Breakfast Club every morning during term time. The cost is £2.50 per session. Although we do not currently request you book for Breakfast Club we do ask that you inform the school in advance, if you intend to start sending your child, so we can ensure the correct staffing ratios are in place. At Breakfast Club children are offered a breakfast of cereal, toast or crumpets, and have fruit juice, milk or water as drink options. The school does not charge for the breakfast, it is an added option for those children that have not eaten before attending, or who are still hungry. At Breakfast Club the children can play games, use the IT suite, read or do their homework. Breakfast Club starts at 7:30am and runs through to the start of school. The children are escorted from the club directly to their class. Your child can be dropped off anytime from 7:30 to class start time. After School Club The school runs an After School Club every day during term time, between the end of school and 6pm. Your child will be escorted straight to After School Club once the school day has ended. The cost per session is: £4.00 up to 4.15pm £5.50 up to 5pm £8.00 up to 6pm After School Club places must be booked in advance by completing the form below, and returning to Miss Mansell in the school office (or by email to jess.mansell@taw.org.uk ). Once she receives your application she will be able to advise you of availability of requested places. It is essential that After School Club places are pre-booked to ensure appropriate staff ratios are in place. Unlike Breakfast Club there are no other staff available to cover if additional numbers are needed. We do not provide a meal at After School Club, but are happy if you wish to send in a snack for your child. At After School Club the children can play games, use the IT suite, read or do their homework. In addition they also do occasional activities such as baking, watch videos and have dance sessions. In the summer they also play games outside, weather permitting. After School Club Booking Form TERMLY ACTIVITY CLUBS Each half term the school runs various activities after school.

- Art | captainwebb
Art Curriculum Statement Intent Our intent is to provide our children with an engaging, exciting and empowering curriculum that allows them to develop as confident responsible citizens equipped with the skills that will allow them to be successful in our ever-changing world, both in the present and the future. We believe that childhood should be a happy, investigative and enquiring time in our lives. We constantly provide enrichment opportunities (memorable experiences) to engage learners and develop their cultural capital which has been recognised as essential if children are to succeed. We believe that our children should not only reach their best academically, but also develop a thirst for knowledge, foster a love of learning and leave our school with exceptional independent learning skills. We are fully committed to developing each child's unique potential within a secure and caring environment. We use our Captain Webb Values to promote positive attitudes to learning: Listen Encourage Achieve Respect Nurture Our school believes that art is a vital part in children’s education as it can give children the opportunities to express their individual interests, thoughts and ideas. A high-quality art education – along with sequential and progressive lessons - will help to engage, excite and empower our children as well as equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment and create their own artwork and crafts. From this children are able to make links with their learning to produce amazing art! As pupils progress throughout our school, they will have a strong understanding of the key art elements (line, tone, texture, colour, pattern, shape, 3D forms), to be able to effectively plan and create pieces of art and evaluate it. Children will also recognise how art has changed throughout the years as they are exposed to many artists and art movements. The art curriculum will develop children’s critical abilities, as well as an understanding of their own and others’ cultural heritages through the study of a diverse range of artists. An example of this is in Year 3, children take inspiration from cubism artist Paul Klee and African American artist Alma Thomas. Finally in Year 4, who look at sculpture and the work of Alberto Giacometti, also study the works of Richard Hunt who is an African American sculptor. In Year 6, children study the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. All children will be exposed to artists from many cultural heritages from out ‘Art in the Moment’ displays. Implementation The teaching of art at Captain Webb Primary School is based on the National Curriculum and is also linked to class topics to ensure a well-structured approach. Knowledge and Skills that the children will develop, are effectively mapped out across each year group and are progressive throughout the school. Children are given the knowledge to help them understand the context of the artwork as well as the artist they are learning about. With this knowledge and the skills that follow they are able to take inspiration and produce individual pieces of artwork on their own Children are also given the chance to develop their artistic skills by being given opportunities to practise and master them. Every year group at Captain Webb Primary School follows the same art journey: Art Gallery – Looking at many pieces of art from a focus artist Exploration of other artists Introduction to new knowledge or skill (experimentation) Evaluation of mediums or methods Creating a plan Creating their final piece Evaluating Acting upon evaluation Comparing Artists (KS2 Only) Our high-quality art curriculum is supported by a wide variety of art resources and mediums. These are used to help children experiment and develop confidence as they progress through the school. Staff at Captain Webb Primary have also received high quality CPD training on the effective use of sketchbooks. This ensures all children at Captain Webb can use sketchbook effectively. Impact The structure of the art curriculum ensures that children are able to develop their knowledge and understanding of the work of artists, craftspeople and designers from a range of times and cultures and apply this knowledge to their own work. Our curriculum is well thought out and is planned to demonstrate progression. Children learn to understand the key principles of art: line, tone, texture, shape, form, space, pattern, colour, contrast, proportion and perspective. Children have the chance to refine their skills as they progress through year groups. This also supports children having age related expectations at the end of their year. Art is celebrated around the school with artwork being displayed throughout the school e.g. work displayed in classes, sculptures being displayed around the school. We measure the impact of our curriculum through the following methods: Images of the children’s practical learning. Asking the pupils about their learning (pupil voice). Moderation staff meetings where pupil’s books are scrutinised and there is the opportunity for a dialogue between teachers to understand their class’s work. Verbal feedback of work throughout the course of the lessons.
