Welcome to the Year 5 Class Page!

We have now defined learning as;

the process of receiving and personalising knowledge in order to apply new concepts and experiences, independently, to unfamiliar situations.

As a result, children learn better when they are able to consistently rehearse and use their new skills, which is why we place so much emphasis on attendance being above 97% and children arriving punctually at school.

Home learning is also an essential tool in our teaching and learning process which through the project and weekly learning tasks aims to;

• Consolidate and reinforce current learning across many curriculum areas and
• Promote independent learning

 (See Home Learning Policy)

As a school, we use a range of strategies to support children’s learning and we would hope you could support your child(ren) by making yourself familiar with them whilst they are doing their home learning.
