Reading Curriculum Statement Reading Curriculum Statement Intent At Captain Webb, we value reading as a key life skill and are dedicated to enabling our pupils to become lifelong readers. We want all of our children to be confident fluent readers who read widely, read often, read for pleasure and read to learn. We want them to be exposed to a variety of literature, genres and authors. We believe that the teaching of reading is integral to a child’s understanding and appreciation of the world around them. We aim to provide children with experiences that will lead to rich language development so that at the end of their primary education with us, they are empowered with a breadth of vocabulary that they can build on in their future prospects. Our reading curriculum strives to foster a love for reading and we believe that that all children should experience an abundance of quality, engaging texts across the curriculum. We want reading to be the golden thread running through a child’s journey at Captain Webb. When they leave us, we want pupils to possess the reading skills and love of literature which will help them to enjoy and access any aspects of learning they encounter in the future. Implementation (Planning an inclusive curriculum). Our inclusive knowledge-based curriculum plans for success. We teach the National Curriculum, supported by a clear skills and knowledge progression. This ensures that skills and knowledge are built on year by year and sequenced appropriately to maximise learning for all children. This enables our pupils to know more and remember more. End points within objectives are identified for each year group through a whole school reading progression plan. Please click the link below for further information. We feel passionately that developing a love of reading from an early age will benefit our children hugely: personally, socially and educationally. Therefore, reading is at the heart of everything we do. Through the use of carefully chosen texts, we expose our children to literature that will spark their passions and develop a love of English. Click the link below to find out the rationale behind our Reading curriculum. Phonics & Reading Through the delivery of our reading curriculum we ensure a consistent and robust teaching and learning of early reading and phonics in the Early Years and Key Stage One, so that pupils are able to read with increased speed and fluency and access the wider curriculum. We follow the Read, Write Inc Phonics programme; a systematic, synthetic phonics scheme that is validated by the Department for Education. Skilled staff deliver daily sessions to ensure rapid progression. Children’s progress through the scheme is assessed continuously to ensure that gaps are addressed quickly and effectively. Books that children read match their level of phonetic knowledge. Skilled reading depends on both fluency and phonic knowledge alongside language comprehension. For more information on the teaching of Phonics, please click on the link below which will transfer you to our Phonics curriculum page. Reading Knowledge and Skills 24 - 25 Whole School Reading Spine 24 - 25 Phonics Curriculum Once children have graduated from the RWI scheme, and are able to decode accurately and speedily, reading a lot is the principal way they develop as readers. Putting in the ‘reading miles’ allows pupils to practise their reading, building experience with increasingly complex texts, encountering new knowledge, gaining new language, including vocabulary, and developing their fluency. Over the course of year 2 and into key stage 2, the focus of the teaching of reading therefore shifts from decoding towards ensuring pupils get this print experience and support with spoken language, both through teacher-led whole class reading sessions and independent reading. Children explore a broad range of challenging texts including fiction, non-fiction and poetry by having purposeful and in-depth discussions with the teacher and their peers to enable them to access the vocabulary, themes and content. Please click on the Year 2 and KS2 reading long term overview below to find out more about the texts your child will be reading. Year 2 & KS2 Reading Overview KS2 Reading Learning Sequence Book Warmers At the beginning of our reading units, we explore the main themes, contexts and background information to help the pupils have a foundational understanding of the text before they begin reading. For example, when the text was written, any settings / countries the text takes place and any cultural and social conventions that may be outlined within a text. These introductory sessions are called 'book warmers' and the pupils have an opportunity to read facts and information about the text as well as use iPADs to access QR codes that link to webpages to further videos and explanations. Most importantly, the book warmers will introduce the pupils to tier 3 vocabulary (subject specific words) that they will come across in subsequent lessons. Vocabulary Lab The teaching of vocabulary is at the forefront of all our daily reading lessons. Tier 2 and tier 3 vocabulary is identified within texts and definitions are provided with picture examples to enhance pupil's understanding of these words. The vocabulary is explored and discussed as the pupil's read to enhance pupil's language development and comprehension. Teaching Prosody All reading sessions focus on improving reading fluency and pupils will listen to the teachers read aloud with expression and intonation. The pupils are taught prosody through a variety of fluency strategies such as echo read, choral read and reader's theatre. They have daily opportunities to re-read the text on their own or with a partner. Fluent and expressive reading (prosody!) is inextricably linked to comprehension. Why? Because prosody helps children build a more complete and accurate picture of what’s being conveyed on the page. How we adapt the pace, emphasis, phrasing and intonation of our reading helps communicate the broader and deeper meaning of what we read. Recent research from the EEF backs this up, finding that prosodic reading improves a child’s comprehension and overall literacy achievement in school. The pupils also have an opportunity to re-read the text at home as part of their reading homework. Understanding of the text On day 1 of our 2 day sequence, the teacher ask questions and models thought processes as they read to enhance pupil's comprehension. The dialogic talk between the adult and pupils is a priority for this session, the teacher explicitly teaches comprehension skills relevant to the extract. These specific comprehension skills are taught using VIPERS reading domains (vocabulary, inference, prediction, explanation, retrieval and summary) On day 2 of our sequence, the teacher models the answering of written comprehension questions based on the extract they have previously read on day one. Teachers plan questions focusing on mixed domains. Pupils complete the questions independently. Quick Quiz and Summarise The reading lessons also include quick quizzes with the focus predominantly upon the quick recall of key facts/key information. (retrieval questions) The pupils talk with a partner to talk about what has happened, what they already know and summarise any key events or facts. Daily Story Time We place reading at the heart of the curriculum, so it is prioritised allowing pupils to access the full curriculum offer. All pupils receive daily story time sessions with an adult modelling fluency and intonation. The pupils listen to a wide range of stories that have all been carefully selected and chosen for their year groups. All texts are outlined in our whole school reading spine, at the top of this webpage. Puffin Keeper Book Warmer Reading for Pleasure Embedding a school culture that values and supports reading for pleasure is extremely important to us. Pupils develop a love of reading; a broad knowledge of authors and understand more about the world in which they live to widen their horizons and raise their aspirations. To enable this, we set aside time for pupils to enjoy and read books independently, discuss texts they are reading and share recommendations. The love2read session is timetabled for all classes once a week and also sets time for pupils to visit our newly refurbished school library. The children can enjoy the freedom of enjoying texts in a tranquil, child centred environment. All classrooms have attractive book corners where the children have access to 100 quality books, both fiction, non-fiction and poetry books to help embed their love of books, stories and reading. Around school, you will find displays which celebrate authors - including our author of the term displays, pupil’s favourite books, authors and recommended reads. Reading across the curriculum Reading is prioritised across our broad and balanced curriculum allowing pupils to read and understand all subjects. Pupils are also expected to read in other subjects to access new information and build their subject knowledge. This reading will also contribute to reading miles and fluency. All subject areas have a recommended text list for all year groups attached to their subject curriculum map. Poetry and Rhymes Through sharing, reading, writing and performing rhymes and poems, we aim to build children’s emotional connection to language and the world around us. Poems are used throughout our curriculum to develop vocabulary, fluency and prosody, imagination and empathy. We also encourage children to review poetry – to form opinions about their own likes and dislikes and to understand and explain their preferences and respect the thoughts and feelings of others. We are committed as a school to developing a love of reading and to reading aloud each day. Alongside our class reading texts, we have four class poetry books to be shared throughout the year. Of course, teachers can add to the core books to further develop children’s exposure and enjoyment of poetry. We have identified a core set of poems for each year group. Each year group will learn by heart poems to be performed for assembly or to be shared with parents or visitors. Children will also be encouraged to revisit poems previously learnt. Each year group will also study a varied selection of poems during guided reading lessons, where vocabulary and meaning can be explored and explained, together with the development of children’s wider reading skills. Poetry also forms part of our writing curriculum and each year group has different forms of poetry to explore and create. This allows children the opportunity to learn more about particular structures of poetry and allows them to write their own poems using a wide range of poetic devices. Children are encouraged to perform their own poetry alongside the poems learnt by their year group. We also seek opportunities throughout the year for children to watch or hear poets reciting and discussing their own work. Please see our Poetry Curriculum Map for further information. Poetry Curriculum 24 - 25 Assessment At all stages, reading attainment is assessed to ensure that gaps are addressed quickly and effectively so that pupils’ progress is accelerated. Targeted support and intervention for reading is a priority – we have a dedicated reading team who ensure any child falling or a risk of falling behind their peers is identified. RWI Fast Track tutoring breaks phonics into small steps to support every child with decoding, including those with SEND. There is a sharp focus on ensuring pupils gain fluency and phonic knowledge alongside language comprehension as modelled by the Scarborough Reading Rope (2001). In KS2, reading fluency is assessed at the beginning of each half term using oral reading fluency (ORF) measures. ORF assessments measure reading rate and accuracy and are expressed in terms of the number of words read correctly per minute (wcpm). On average, pupils should read at least 90 words per minute. Any pupils who require further support with their reading fluency are provided with additional reading practice. During this interventions, the pupils re-read passages using strategies such as echo read and timed reads. Our aim is to ensure all pupils leave our school fluent, confident readers as we know oral reading fluency has consistently been found to have a high correlation with reading comprehension. During whole class reading sessions, formative assessment takes place daily, while termly summative assessment takes place in the form of NFER testing which allows analysis of gaps in comprehension knowledge to be quickly addressed. All pupils are also assessed on their reading of the common exception words for their year group. Please see the spelling curriculum page for these word lists. How do we enrich the curriculum? Book recommendation boards are displayed throughout school to inform pupils of new and popular texts across the age ranges. The children are given the opportunity to loan these books from Mrs Passey and write reviews on these books for our school newsletter. At Captain Webb, we also have a range of opportunities within the academic year to further enhance reading opportunities for our children. Regular trips to the local library, engaging with national reading events including World Book Day, Roald Dahl Day and National Poetry day. Each year we invite external theatre companies into school to deliver whole school productions and drama workshops for our pupils, recent examples of which are Christmas Carol and Jack and the Beanstalk. We have also had Dance workshops based on 'Bringing Books to Life'. Year 3 story focus was Charlie and the chocolate factory, Year 4 focus was Alice in Wonderland and Year 5 focus was The Jungle Book. How can you help your child? EYFS and KS1 To support their reading journey your child will bring home two books home. The first book will be a fully decodable book matched to your child’s phonic knowledge. When your child is in the early stages of learning to read you can help by encouraging them to sound out the letters in words and then to ‘blend’ the sounds together to make a whole word. Please refer to the Phonics Curriculum page on the school website for further support on early reading strageties. The second book will be a picture book for you to share at bedtime. This is an opportunity to share a love of reading with your child, talk about the story and offer opinions. KS2 All pupils in KS2 will bring home a copy of their whole class novel to read at home. The class teacher will provide information in regards to homework expectations for reading the guided reading text. E.g. We would like you to read chapters 1 – 3 tonight. We also encourage all pupils to loan books from our school library to enjoy at home. In response to a recent parent's survey, we will also be sending home an additional text from our 100 books for our pupils to read at home. The school’s Homework Policy states that all children are expected to read at home every day. This is for a maximum of 10 minutes. Reading regularly at home helps to develop children’s reading skills. Making the time to talk to your children about the books they choose and listening to them reading aloud regularly can make all the difference. Children need to understand why we read. They need to experience the range of feelings that a book can create or the power that can be gained from accessing information. Reading must not only be confined to stories. Many children love reading comics, magazines, newspapers, information books and poetry. All of these reading activities should be encouraged. Children in Key Stage 2 will all be at very different stages of development, but even for the most fluent readers there is a need for parental support. Most parents or carers are able to create quality time to share a book individually with one child. This is the time when children can develop a much deeper understanding of the books that they are reading. Rather than reading at home being ‘reading practice’, it should extend and enrich the reading experiences of school. One of the most powerful ways in which parents can do this is to show real enthusiasm themselves. Your sense of excitement about books and stories, your anticipation about what will happen next in a story and a discussion about your own likes and dislikes, will greatly influence your child. Teachers will check the Home School Reading Record daily and record for our end of term reading rewards including books, book vouchers or an author visit . This year we celebrated National Poetry Day with a very special guest. A well-known poet called James Carter. He worked with all year groups to create different types of poetry including rhyme, similes, kennings and cinquains. Please see the video clips below of our wonderful work. Impact By the time children leave Captain Webb, they are competent readers who can recommend books to their peers, have a thirst for reading a range of genres including poetry, and participate in discussions about books, including evaluating an author’s use of language and the impact this can have on the reader. They can also read books to enhance their knowledge and understanding of all subjects on the curriculum, and communicate their research to a wider audience. ‘I go to Phonics every day to learn my sounds. I can now read words and I’ve just moved to Yellow phonics books.’ – Year 1 pupil. ‘I’ve read many books since I’ve been at Captain Webb. Some of my favourite texts are Stig of the Dump by Clive King, Harry Potter by JK Rowling and Street Child by Berlie Doherty.’ –Year 6 pupil. ‘This year, I’ve enjoyed reading lots of different non-fiction texts. I’m currently reading a non-fiction text on the heart and circulatory system which has helped me answer questions in Science.’ Year 5 pupil. Attainment in reading is measured using statutory assessments such as the end of EYFS and Key Stage 2 and following the outcomes in the Year 1 Phonics Screening check. Assessment data shows that.. 90% of children passed the Year 1 Phonics Screening check in 2023. 72% reached ARE at KS2 with 28% reaching greater depth. The impact of this implementation was also noted in our 2019 OFSTED: The teaching of reading is done very well. Staff are trained in how to teach phonics and daily routines and systems make sure everyone gets what they need. Whether reading in class or at home, staff check that pupils have books they understand. If any pupil needs a helping hand, adults find extra time straight away and this stops them from falling behind. As pupils’ confidence grows, teachers introduce them to new books and authors. Most days, teachers read to the class during ‘page-turner time’. They encourage pupils to talk about books and share their views. Reading Policy 24-25

PSHE Curriculum Statement Intention At Captain Webb our aim is to provide our children with an engaging, exciting and empowering curriculum that allows them to develop as confident responsible citizens equipped with the skills that will allow them to be successful in our ever changing world, both in the present and the future. We believe that childhood should be a happy, investigative and enquiring time in our lives. We constantly provide enrichment opportunities (memorable experiences) to engage learners and develop their cultural capital which has been recognised as essential if children are to succeed. We believe that our children should not only reach their best academically, but also develop a thirst for knowledge, foster a love of learning and leave our school with exceptional independent learning skills. We are fully committed to developing each child's unique potential within a secure and caring environment. We use our Captain Webb Values to promote positive attitudes to learning: Listen Encourage Achieve Respect Nurture Our PSHE curriculum develops learning and results in the acquisition of knowledge and skills which will enable children to access the wider curriculum. It also, prepares them to be global citizens now and in their future roles within a global community. It promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils, preparing them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences for later life. Our Relationships and Sex Education enables our children to learn how to be safe, and to understand and develop healthy relationships, both now and in their future lives. Implementation EYFS - In the Foundation Stage, PSHE and citizenship is taught as an integral part of topic work and is embedded throughout the curriculum. The objectives taught are the Personal, Social and Emotional Development statements from ‘Development Matters in the EYFS’ and the PSED Early Learning Goals. Reception also uses the Jigsaw Scheme of Work materials. (See below) Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 - At Key Stage 1 and 2, pupils are taught PSHE using ‘Jigsaw’ which is a spiral, progressive scheme of work, covering all of the above and aims to prepare children for life, helping them to know and value who they are and understand how they relate to other people in this ever-changing world. There is a strong emphasis on emotional Literacy (having self-awareness and recognition of your own feelings and knowing how to manage them), building resilience and nurturing mental and physical health. It includes mindfulness to allow children to advance their emotional awareness, concentration and focus. We teach about different kinds of relationships, including same sex relationships, and gender identity because it is important that our children should have an understanding of the full diversity of the world they live in and be prepared for life in modern Britain. The Sex Education aspects of PSHE are also taught through the ‘Jigsaw’. Alongside this in KS2 children have access the Expect Respect materials, which focus on healthy relationships and also deals with sensitive issues such as domestic abuse. PSHE also identifies links to British Values such as the rule of law and democracy. SMSC taught throughout the Jigsaw scheme of work and ensures that the development of children’s values plays a significant part in their ability to learn and achieve. To develop our pupil’s cultural capital at Captain Webb, we have visits from the local emergency services, Fire brigade, Lifeguards, Police and the RAF. We also give the children the opportunity to have visitors from Crucial Crew, Star, NSPCC to learn about ‘PANTS’ and ‘Helping hands. The children also get to experience other cultures by visiting places of worships to see how we are all different. All of these helps our children to experience the essential knowledge that they need to prepare them for their future success. PSHE is taught, every Monday morning throughout the whole school, through Jigsaw’s six half termly themes with each year group studying the same unit at the same time. The knowledge and skills of each unit progresses through each year. Autumn 1: Being Me in My World Autumn 2: Differences (including anti-bullying) Spring 1: Dreams and Goals Spring 2: Healthy Me Summer 1: Relationships Summer 2: Changing Me (including Sex Education) Impact The impact of following this programme will be that the standards of attainment across the school will meet or exceed those which are expected of our children nationally. We continuously assess the implementation and impact of our PSHE curriculum in order to achieve the highest outcomes possible across all year groups and ensure we provide the support that is necessary for all children to achieve. Through our PSHE curriculum, we believe we can enhance children’s education and help them to become caring, respectful, responsible, and confident individuals and citizens. By the time our children leave our school they will: be able to approach a range of real life situations and apply their skills and attributes to help navigate themselves through modern life be on their way to becoming healthy, open minded, respectful, socially and morally responsible, active members of society appreciate difference and diversity be able to understand and manage their emotions be able to look after their mental health and well-being be able to develop positive, healthy relationship with their peers both now and in the future. understand the physical aspects involved in RSE at an age appropriate level have respect for themselves and others. have a positive self esteem PSHE Policy 2024-2025 PSHE Skills and Knowledge Progression Plans 2024.25

Phonics Curriculum Statement What is Phonics? Phonics is the method of teaching reading through the identification of sounds and graphemes. All words are made up of individual sounds. These sounds are merged together to form words. e.g. in ‘mat’ we have the sounds ‘m’, ‘a’, ‘t’, ship – ‘sh’, ‘i’, ‘p’. A grapheme is another name for the letters we use to write the sound. The spelling of that sound on the page. The new National Curriculum ensures that all children are taught Phonics systematically. This gives your children the tools to read any word. What is Read Write Inc? At Captain Webb, we use Read, Write, Inc. an inclusive synthetic phonic programme to teach our children to read, to write and to spell. We have adopted this as our whole school approach as the programme facilitates a graduated and tailored approach to learning basic sounds and letter formation before advancing to more complex sounds and reading for comprehension. The programme moves with integrity from learning to read to reading to learn. This video, taken from the Ruth Miskin website, explains the scheme in more detail: https://youtu.be/sjlPILhk7bQ Teaching Phonics at Captain Webb We start teaching the programme in your child’s Reception year and then continue until they have worked their way through the whole reading scheme. Our aim is for all children to complete the programme by the end of the first half term of Year 2. Those children who have not reached the expected level by the time they leave KS1 will continue to access the RWI programme and receive additional targeted intervention to ensure they catch up with their peers. RWI is taught through daily phonic lessons where we teach sounds. Children practise reading and spelling words containing these sounds, then we give children decodable books containing sounds and words they can read. They read each storybook four times at school and again with you at home. We assess all children on the scheme every half term, to ensure that they are placed in the appropriate group for their reading ability. This also allows us to quickly identify any children who need some support to access the learning at the level of the group. If this arises, we provide one-to-one tutoring for the child in accordance with the Read, Write, Inc scheme, to help them make rapid progress and once again be at the level of their group. Groups are taught by either teachers or teaching assistants who have had Read, Write, Inc phonics training; in utilising so many staff, we can ensure that groups are kept as small as possible and that the teaching the children receive is tailored to their needs. To find out more information on the half termly progress expectations for Phonics, please click on the link below. Half Termly Progress Expectations - Phonics In Reception, children begin by learning the Set 1 sounds. Set 1 Sounds are taught in the following order together with rhymes to help children form the letters correctly and instantly recognise sounds ready for blending. For the set 1 handwriting rhymes please click on this link. Handwriting Rhymes They also begin learning to blend sounds together to make words after learning the first 5 sounds, firstly through practising oral blending, also known as Fred Talk. Then, when they can blend independently, they progress on to reading green words. As soon as children can read green words, they begin to read stories in their Read, Write, Inc sessions. Each storybook is matched to the sounds they can already read, which sets them up for success and helps to build their confidence with reading. Each colour set also contains 5 non-fiction texts It is through these storybooks that we teach children red words, which are irregular words that are not phonetically plausible and cannot be sounded out (Fred Talked). Each storybook is taught in the same way, with children practising reading the green words in the story and also the red words, before they begin to read the book. Children will then read the book several times to help build their fluency and comprehension skills. Order of Story books: Children will hopefully follow the order listed below. The expectation is that all children will leave Year One as confident speedy readers, ready to take on the challenges of Year Two. However, some children may need extra support and your teacher will talk to you about this.

When they are very confident with all of set 1 and 2 they are taught Set 3 Sounds. Speed Sounds Set 3 Nonsense Words also known as alien Words As well as learning to read and blend real words children will have plenty of opportunities to apply their sound recognition skills on reading ‘Nonsense words also known as alien words’. These words will also feature heavily in the Year One Phonics Screening check in the summer term. To find out more about the Year 1 Phonics Screening check please click on this link. https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/at-school/primary-school-assessment-tests/year-1-phonics-screening-check/ Spelling Spelling will only start in Reception when children are ready to write and form their letters. Children will use first use ‘Fred fingers’ to first sound out a word before they write it down. Children learn how to spell rather than just get tested. Furthermore, this way of teaching spellings allows children to use Fred fingers whenever they get stuck with spelling a word. Children pinch each sound on fingers before writing the word. What can you do to help? 1. Use pure sounds, not letter names We teach using pure sounds. We pronounce the sounds clearly, using pure sounds (‘m’ not’ muh’, ’s’ not ‘suh’, etc.) so that your child will be able to blend the sounds together to make words more easily. To hear how to pronounce sounds correctly, watch the following video. https://youtu.be/s6OiU2h3sUI 2. Use Fred Talk to read and spell words (see above) 3. Listen to your child read their Storybook every day. 4. Read aloud a variety of stories to your child every day. Our school library has a wonderful selection of picture books, speak to our admin team about loaning out books to read at home. You can access online resources (see below) where there are tips and videos to give you more information to help you to understand more about Phonics, Read Write Inc. and how to practise reading and writing with your child at home.

At Captain Webb Primary School we try hard to make our school uniform as affordable and accessible to parents as is possible. To this extent we have our uniform in navy blue, which is readily available from most retailers, and are happy to accept black or grey trousers and skirts. We do not insist that the uniform is logoed, but we do have a supplier that can provide logoed uniform, which is good quality and at a reasonable price (the company was voted for by the parents). To further help parents with the cost of purchasing uniform we have some second hand uniform available in school, and the school provides a PE kit for each child. For our full uniform policy, including any seasonal changes to uniform, or what to do if you have any concerns, please see below: School Uniform Policy Our school uniform is provided by I Want Workwear Dynamic Court, Halesfield 24, Telford, TF7 4NZ www.Iwantworkwear.co.uk You can view and order the full range online Strój na WF Biała koszulka Granatowe lub czarne spodenki PE Trampki lub trampki Czarne, granatowe lub szare joggery do PE na zewnątrz

Spoken Language Reading and writing float on a sea of talk. James Britton What is Spoken Language? The national curriculum for English reflects the importance of spoken language in pupils’ development across the whole curriculum – cognitively, socially and linguistically. Spoken language underpins the development of reading and writing. The quality and variety of language that pupils hear and speak are vital for developing their vocabulary and grammar and their understanding for reading and writing. Curriculum Intent At Captain Webb Primary School, we value Spoken Language as an important part of the children’s entitlement to a broad and balanced curriculum. Spoken Language provides the children with the opportunities to develop and extend skills and an opportunity to express their individual interests, thoughts and ideas. Our aim is to enable the children improve their levels of spoken language so that all pupils are able to communicate effectively and confidently in front of any type of audience. These skills are encouraged in every area of our curriculum as good communication skills can enhance every type of learning. The children are encouraged to explore ideas through talk; challenge each other’s opinions and develop their own reasoned arguments, as well as talking in full sentences with a clear and confident voice. Pupils should be taught to: listen and respond appropriately to adults and their peers ask relevant questions to extend their understanding and build vocabulary and knowledge articulate and justify answers, arguments and opinions give well-structured descriptions and explanations maintain attention and participate actively in collaborative conversations, staying on topic and initiating and responding to comments use spoken language to develop understanding through speculating, hypothesising, imagining and exploring ideas speak audibly and fluently with an increasing command of Standard English participate in discussions, presentations, performances and debates gain, maintain and monitor the interest of the listener(s) consider and evaluate different viewpoints, attending to and building on the contributions of others select and use appropriate registers for effective communication. Spoken language: speaking, listening & responding Implementation The teaching and implementation of the Spoken Language curriculum is based on the Early Learning Goals and National Curriculum; it is supported by expectations from the Voice 21 framework, ensuring a well-structured approach. These skills are at the core of our curriculum and pupils are encouraged to listen and learn from sharing ideas with others. Staff at Captain Webb model the use of higher level vocabulary within their speech and expanding children’s vocabulary is a key focus in all years. Subject specific vocabulary is embedded across the curriculum, through teacher modelling, in context. Contextual learning helps children to understand new words and supports them in including new vocabulary in their work. This model is reflected in both shared and guided reading sessions, where children are given the chance to explore unfamiliar vocabulary and expand their knowledge of words. Talk partners are used extensively throughout the school, together with a range of planned learning opportunities that encourage pupils to explore language e.g. role play, drama activities, group discussion, hot seating. In KS2, pupils also take part in class debates. Drama is used across a range of subjects including History, problem solving in Mathematics, hot-seating during English lessons and Religious Education,. to explore and engage children in their learning. This gives children the chance to embed the use of specific vocabulary repetitively. At Christmas, EYFS and KS1 children perform their Christmas production to the school while LKS2 produce and lead a production of drama, jokes and songs at Easter. At the end of the academic year, the Year 6 children perform a tailored production to parents and carers. All pupils also perform to their parents once a year in their year group assembly. Daily poetry and rhyme and singing sessions are prioritised in EYFS and KS1. All year groups have a core set of poems that the pupils learn off by heart and perform in assemblies. Our pupils need lots of opportunities to speak and listen. This is especially true of pupils with special educational needs (SEND) and/or pupils with English as an additional language (EAL). Within every day teaching, we use a range of resources to support communication e.g. visuals made with Communication in Print, word banks, sentence stems, speaking frames. Some pupils take part in small group activities (Talk Boost) and some pupils receive additional support e.g. speech and language assistant or therapist. Impact Constructive formative feedback is provided to pupils regarding their spoken language and listening skills, not only to improve their knowledge and skills but also to establish secure foundations for effective spoken language at primary school right through to secondary education and beyond. Pupils at Captain Webb Primary School have a wide vocabulary and are confident speakers. They enjoy talking amongst peers and to adults in school and demonstrate excellent listening skills. Poetry Day - October 2024 Below are some video clips of our children reading out poems they wrote/covered on Poetry Day, working alongside the poet James Carver.

Remote Education Attendance is essential for pupils to get the most out of their school experience, including for their attainment, wellbeing, and wider life chances. There are, however, certain circumstances when it is not possible for a child to attend and it is in these circumstance where an offer of Remote Education can be made. Remote education should not be viewed as an equal alternative to attendance in school. For this reason schools may only consider it as a last resort when the alternative would be no education, and only after it has been established that the pupil is, or will be, absent from school. In such cases, remote education can have the benefit of allowing absent pupils to keep on track with their education and stay connected to their teachers and peers. The priority is always ATTENDANCE. Scenarios where remote attendance should be considered. Where schools have to close, or there are restrictions on attendance for pupils (i.e. during COVID) Providing remote education does not change the imperative to remain open or to reopen as soon as possible. Every effort will be made to ensure pupils can be taught in person by attending school or if appropriate and possible, attending a safe alternative site. After exploring all options to ensure the school remains open to all pupils, there may still be some exceptional occasions when school leaders or the local authority decide that it is not possible to open safely, or where opening would contradict guidance from local or central government. If restricting attendance for pupils is the only viable option, we will consider providing remote education to help pupils stay on track with the education they would normally receive. In individual cases where a child is unable to attend school but is able to learn. There should only be limited circumstances where a pupil is unable to attend school but is able and well enough to continue their education remotely. These circumstances should only involve a short-term absence and might include: pupils recovering from short-term infectious illnesses, pupils preparing for or recovering from some operations, or pupils recovering from injuries where attendance might inhibit recovery. In some exceptional cases, these circumstances might also include pupils whose attendance has been affected by a special educational need or disability (SEND) or a mental health issue. In these circumstances, and after the pupil’s absence from school has been established, we will consider providing pupils with remote education on a case-by-case basis. This will be part of a plan to reintegrate back to school, and only when it is judged that providing remote education would not adversely affect the pupil’s return to school. Provision of remote education is a short-term solution allowing absent pupils to keep on track with their education and stay connected to their teachers and peers. Pupils with long-term medical conditions or any other physical or mental health needs affecting attendance may require additional support to continue their education. At Captain Webb Primary School we refer our parents to the Oak National Academy website, as this provides high quality lessons that are meaningful, ambitious, and cover an appropriate range of subjects to enable pupils to keep on track with their education. We will work with the parent/s so they understand which elements of learning their child will need. We will provide additional support in cases of SEND, and work collaboratively with families to support the children/parents accessing the learning successfully. We will help to overcome barriers to digital access by loaning school owned devices, accompanied by a user agreement, if and where necessary and/or possible. The senior leader with overarching responsibility for the quality and delivery of remote education is Mrs Sarah Passey (Headteacher).
