How to support your child's learning
Parents Evening
Each term you can make an appointment to meet with your child’s class teacher to discuss your child’s learning and progress. During this meeting the teacher will talk about what your child can do and how you can support them at home with their learning
Home Learning
Parents participating and actively being involved in their child’s education can have a significant impact on improving children’s learning and supporting their needs. Each term a home learning project will be sent home, we encourage you to do them with your child and return the completed work to school.
What is Times Tables Rockstars?
Times Tables Rock Stars is a carefully sequenced programme of daily times tables practice with a rock star theme. Each week concentrates on a different times table, with a recommended consolidation week for rehearsing the tables that have recently been practiced every third week or so.
As a school, this forms part of your child's homework, and they must complete at least 30 minutes practice per week.
