Reflection
Children will be able to reflect on their actions and learning and think about how they may do things differently.
St Ann’s Well Academy’s curriculum is underpinned by our vision and values:
Through high expectations, our vision is to empower pupils to acquire, demonstrate and articulate knowledge, skills, learning behaviours and personal values that will support them, as life-long learners and responsible citizens of the future.
Our core values underpin L.E.A.Ds values of LEAD, EMPOWER, ACHIEVE and DRIVE.
St Ann’s values are:
Respect, Responsibility, Kindness, Reflection, Honesty and Self-belief
Respect – We show consideration and care towards places, people and their beliefs
Responsibility – We act correctly and make decisions on our own
Kindness – We are friendly, generous and considerate
Positivity – We think and respond to situations calmly and optimistically
Honesty – We are truthful and sincere.
Self-belief – We have confidence in our own abilities
Children will be able to reflect on their actions and learning and think about how they may do things differently.
Children use a range of strategies to help them solve problems. They generate something original: providing an alternative to the expected, the conventional, or the routine.
When children come across a difficulty they show the ability to bounce back or keep trying. They are able to cope when things don’t go to plan. When things are challenging they persevere. Children value their mistakes as learning opportunities.
Children are engaged in their own learning and always want to move it to the next level. They are actively involved in their learning, enjoy challenges and strive to do their best. They take pride in their work and are determined to improve it.
Children are able to ask questions, investigate and explore new things. They have a growing mindset and thrive on learning and taking part in new experiences.
Children are able to make their own, well-informed choices. They can select what they need to do and how best to do it. They can locate, process and evaluate information to come to a decision.
Children work confidently with others, adapting to different contexts and taking responsibility for their own role. They can listen and take account of others’ views. Form collaborative relationships, resolving issues and reach agreed outcomes. Shoe fairness and consideration towards others.
In order to meet our vision, we deliver an ambitious, sequenced and cumulative curriculum that gives our children a wealth of knowledge, skills and a passport of broad experiences – all of which enable our children to be outward-facing, rich in cultural capital and ultimately, ready to embark on their life-long journey into the wider world.
Our curriculum aims to:
