St Cuthbert’s C of E Primary School
The school adapts the Primary National Strategy framework to plan for
mixed-age classes and pupils’ interests. Mathematics is taught discretely
as a subject and, following a curriculum review, pupils now have plenty of
opportunities to develop and consolidate their skills through practical
activities across other subjects. The positive impact is feeding through
school and recent assessment data indicate that more pupils are making
good and outstanding progress.
Extra-curricular activities enrich the curriculum, extending mathematics
beyond the school day. Pupils enjoy the cookery class which reinforces
weighing, measuring and counting skills. Homework is used effectively to
underpin the conceptual understanding developed during lessons.
Teachers use interactive whiteboards well to illustrate learning and
introduce different methods. However, pupils say they do not use
information and communication technology (ICT) very often as a tool for
mathematical learning.

All pupils at Glasshouses School have the right to a rich and deep learning experience that includes the learning of the basics of an additional language. The study of Languages prepares pupils to participate in a rapidly changing world in which work and other activities are increasingly carried out in languages other than English. Language learning provides liberation from insularity and provides an opening to other cultures. Pupils use language to communicate information responsibly and creatively; learning how to use languages to enable access to ideas and experiences from a wide range of people, communities and cultures across our school and wider demographic. In addition, understanding a modern foreign language increases a child’s understanding of their own language, and the building blocks which form this..
We teach a curriculum that enables our pupils to become effective users of language, and show an understanding and respect of different cultures in our local, national and global communities.
Through the teaching of French at Glasshouses School, we aim to:
Ensure every child has the opportunity, throughout Key Stage 2, to study French as a foreign language; developing their interest in the culture of other nations, communities and beliefs.
Ensure pupils have access to high-quality teaching and learning opportunities.
Ensure pupils have exposure to simple commands including day-to-day French language, including days, months, numbers and classroom instructions.
Ensure pupils develop an increased wider cultural understanding through our enriched and varied curriculum to which languages contribute.
Provide language informed by the National Curriculum and the skills expressed in this: Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing and Cultural Understanding.
