Science, Cross Curricular IT and Computing
In Little Champions, teachers use the programmes of study from the National Curriculum to plan their teaching and use Classroom Monitor to track their progress. These are mapped out in the medium-term plans to ensure coverage over the year as well as progression and repetition through the year. This coverage ensures that they are being challenged and are working towards meeting their Individual Educational Plans (IEP) targets.
Science, Cross Curricular IT and Computing
At Little Champions, children are provided with the opportunity to learn about the natural world. We encourage children to be curious about the world around them by providing them with opportunities to observe, investigate and explore. We inspire children to develop their skills by making predictions, categorising, sorting, comparing, measuring, and questioning.
