Understanding Wellbeing

We are passionate about nurturing self-esteem in children to enable them to not only embrace learning and challenge within their current year groups, but to build up strategies and tools for the future.

Not only is children’s self-esteem paramount to their learning but we want children to recognise that mistakes help us learn. Skills and knowledge can be grown with the effort they put in and steps of progress praised and celebrated to encourage children’s confidence and aspirations. This is our “Growth Learning” thread which we want to embed in our Wellbeing Zone content.

Wellbeing Articles

Starting the New School Year

We try and post blogs that will help you help your child with their learning journey. Please message us if you have anything you would specifically like us to answer.

Helping your child with their tables..

Helping your child to learn their tables will help them in so many aspects of maths.

End of Year Reports

Remember to celebrate the effort and progress your child has made when you receive their end of year report - it has been a challenging year for everyone!

School Closures

School closures can be a big challenge for families, but remember you can only do your best, and keeping up with reading will still build a lot of useful skills.

How to help your child prepare for end of year assessments

It is usual for children to undergo a series of assessments at the end of each academic year, with government Standardised Assessment Tests (SATs) at the end of Key Stage 1 and 2 (Year 2 and Year 6).

Feeling competitive about our children

Each child develops at different rates and we know this so well with so many years of teaching.

Mental Health Awareness

Mental health awareness week is a good time to reflect on practical tips for how we can help if needed.

Creating a space for your child to learn

When children are working from home, maybe homework or home-schooling, the environment they are working in is so important to their concentration levels.
