Intent

Teaching staff have worked together to ensure that our curriculum has a clear statement of intent, that we are clear about how to implement our curriculum, and how we ensure that it is up-to-date, relevant and fit for purpose by ensuring that we review its impact regularly.

We have studied Rosenshine's Principles of Instruction (Rosenshine, 2012) as a basis for discussions around pedagogy and high quality learning experiences, and aim to implement these principles as a matter of course on a daily basis. The 10 Principles are concerned with:

  1. Daily Review
  2. Presenting New Material Using Small Steps
  3. Ask Questions
  4. Provide Models
  5. Guide Student Practice
  6. Check For Student Understanding
  7. Obtain A High Success Rate
  8. Provide Scaffolds For Difficult Tasks
  9. Independent Practice
  10. Weekly & Monthly Review
