The Russett School

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

This term in Beech we have lots of great learning oppurtunities and experiences planned as we lead up to summer!

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:

• TV, Media and Film
• Maths in the community -  Using maths for functional purposes such as: Shopping, travel routes/times and money.
• Digital photography
• World Studies - Asian culture (India)
• Communicating our opinions, feelings and beliefs

Enrichment:

Pupils will be engaging in outdoor learning in our school garden/ allotment area, contributing to the design and implementation for our school entry to Arley Garden festival. Please could you pop spare joggers in the school bag and wellies or old shoes to use outdoors.

This half-term, our PE focus is on athletics. Please can you ensure that your child has the right kit including a hat and suncream for warmer weather.

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.
