The Russett School

Wishing you warm welcome back to the start of our new school term! 

This term in Beech we will be spending some time each day working on the development of individual wellbeing. This will involve the children setting small tasks and goals, then celebrating their success and achievements.

As a class group, we will be following the ‘Moving On’ Equals Curriculum which is designed to support our young people develop skills in Maths, English, ICT alongside Vocational Studies; World Studies and independent living skills.

Pupils will be supported for individual and small group learning in all lessons; identifying what is important to them and what they want to learn.

We will be working hard to increase our independence and self-help skills each day, including communicating choices.

Our work will include:

• Poetry and plays
• Classical music
• Enterprise and using money
• Asian culture
• Materials in the home
• Newspapers and magazines/ letters and postcards
• Making collections and leisure facilities

Enrichment:

Pupils will be engaging in outdoor learning opportunities through Forest School and in our school garden/ allotment area. These activities will continue during the year; so please could you pop spare joggers in the school bag and wellies or old shoes to use outdoors.

PE is on a Tuesday 

As the term progresses, we plan to take some visits within the community; the children will be involved in the planning of these and they will have a social story to follow as part of their preparation.
