Curriculum
Curriculum Intent
At Clore Shalom we have thought hard about what we want to achieve through our curriculum. We often discuss what we want for our Year 6 children when they leave us to go to secondary school. The points below explain our overall aims for our curriculum and each of our subject areas has been designed with these aims in mind.
- For Clore Shalom children to be tolerant and show respect for others.
- For Clore Shalom children to be responsible citizens, willing and able to play a key role in their community.
- For Clore Shalom children to show resilience and independence when faced with problems.
- For Clore Shalom children to be always striving to improve.
- For Clore Shalom children to have a lifelong love of learning.
- For Clore Shalom children to use their words to successfully self-advocate and express themselves in all situations.
- For Clore Shalom children to have pride and joy in their Jewish heritage.
Homework
As part of our commitment to encourage reading for pleasure, our homework in Reception – Year 5 is based around reading. Every child in school is expected to read for at least ten minutes per day and this progress is logged and checked every day by class teachers. Multiplication tables are also learnt for homework. In Year 6, children receive English and Maths homework every week to prepare them for the transition to secondary school.
