We are embedding the 5 a day principle, taken from the Education Endowment Foundation. These principles ensure that all SEND pupils have access to High Quality Teaching, which is adapted to meet their needs. Our focus for this academic year are these 3 principles:
- Explicit Instruction to ensure teachers use clear and succinct language in teaching and checking pupils’ understanding frequently.
- Scaffolding to ensure scaffolds are provided (visual, verbal and written) that allow all pupils to access the learning.
- Flexible Groupings to promote peer tutoring, placing pupils in groups in which they learn from one another.
