The Ethos of Apollo

The ethos of the classroom is based on developing positive, open and honest relationships. We recognise that managing 'big feelings' is not always easy, so we try to create an environment where these feelings are validated and we have strategies which positively react to these changing emotions. Our Class Charter, Currirculum, Timetable and Regulation Strategies reflect this.

 

Our Curriculum

Our curriculum is delivered in a way that supports our needs academically, socially and emotionally. Within our class, learning is broken down into shorter sessions; after each session we have regular sensory breaks; teaching uses multisensory approaches to support engagement; the environment is set up to support children's sensory needs, such as seating and soft furnishings to ensure we are comfortable and relaxed; and we are able to use different strategies to help regulate our emotions and feelings throughout the day. Our daily timetable is the following:

Our Curriculum is based around the Year 6 National Curriculum. The children are supported in developing self-awareness skills to ensure a smooth transition to High School whilst maintaining academic rigour to ensure they can confidently undertake the Year 6 SATS.

 

Links to the Curriculum

Each Monday we go on a trip alongside Infinity, our PE day is Friday where we will be doing Tag Rugby, and my PPA is on a Friday during assembly. Each area of the curriculum has links to additional learning opportunities that can be undertaken at home.
