Ensuring children are able to speak, read and write confidently is one of the absolute core jobs of formal education. We take this duty seriously, and have several schemes and systems in place to ensure high quality teaching and learning of English skills throughout the school.
We use a programme called Read Write Inc. to teach phonics at Jubilee. This is a fun and interactive approach to teaching children to read and write. In addition to their daily phonics session, children in key stage 1 also have a topic-based English lesson.
Maths is a central curriculum area and being numerate is an important life skill. At Jubilee we aim to link Maths in the classroom to the real world in as many ways as possible to strengthen children’s understanding and make Maths relevant to their lives.
Children at Jubilee learn about a range of religions, in line with the British values of mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and those without faith.
