I hope you are well and looking forward to a well-deserved break, let’s hope some of the glorious weather comes our way! This will be the final weekly update, returning the first week in September, so I would like to take this opportunity to wish you well and I hope you have a lovely break.
Keeping it short and sweet this week
Come rain or shine, over the summer holidays many children and young people will be spending longer on gaming consoles. It is imperative that parents take an active role and understand gaming (it isn’t just playing games), the games their children are playing, potential risks and how to mitigate those risks.
Internet Matters have a whole gaming hub, a library of information just for parents covering the areas above and more. You can get to the gaming hub HERE.
Some Summer reading! Here are some documents you might want to have a look at.
Mathematics subject report
This subject report evaluates the common strengths and weaknesses of mathematics in the schools inspected. The report shares what has been learned and builds on the Ofsted mathematics research review which identified factors that can contribute to high-quality school maths curriculums, assessment, pedagogy and systems. CLICK HERE TO ACCESS THE REPORT
The History Subject report was also released this month. Click here to access it.
And you can access the recently updated Reading Framework here.
Until September, have a lovely break. Enjoy any adventures you have, travel safely and we’ll be back to do it all again next year!
