Dear Parents,
Another busy and exciting week in our Primary School. This week sees our pupils complete their end-of-year assessments in a supportive and positive way. Pupils have been working towards this all year and they do not need to worry. Our teachers are constantly assessing children in every lesson and adapting lessons to ensure children are challenged and making progress. Our advice to you as parents is to ensure children are well rested for their days at school! Results of these assessments in Maths, English and Science will be shared through the end of year report which will be sent during week commencing 17th June.
We also welcome visitors this week from Boston College USA. As we are part of a research project developing metacognition skills in students, we will be sharing this with our visitors – Dr Damian Bebell, Research Professor and Research Associate Gareth Cleveland. They will spend time observing and meeting with teachers to discuss the learner ambitions and portfolios which we have been including in some of our lessons this year.
