Children are taught with the emphasis on learning through play. We maintain a high ratio of teaching staff to pupils and facilities inside and outside provide exceptional learning experiences for our children.

Key Stage 1 (Years 1 and 2)

We continue to provide a broad, balanced curriculum in Key Stage 1 with an emphasis on teaching English and mathematics. We develop reading and writing through a phonics based programme (Little Wandle) and equip our children with the basics that will enable them to take the Standard Attainment Tests (SATS) at the end of Year 2.

Key Stage 2 (Year 3 to 4)

Within Key Stage 2, children continue to follow the National Curriculum developing their independent learning skills which will equip them for their next stage of education.

On leaving school we aim to have created confident, well rounded individuals who enjoy learning and have met and hopefully exceeded National expectations relevant to their own stage of development.

Our Curriculum

Our curriculum has been designed with our school context, resources and pupils in mind. Please find below our curriculum intent statement which clarifies our approaches, priorities and rationale, linked to our key drivers.

Remote Learning at Kingsfield

At Kingsfield, we know that being in school is the best place for children to learn, both for their education and their wellbeing. Government guidance explains that remote education should only be used in exceptional circumstances and never as a replacement for regular school attendance. It is considered only when a child is unable to attend school but is still well enough to learn, or in the rare event of a school closure.

When Remote Learning Will Be Offered

In line with national expectations, remote learning may be provided when:

• A child is recovering from a short‑term illness or injury but is well enough to complete learning at home
• A child is preparing for or recovering from a minor operation
• A child has a short‑term absence linked to SEND or mental health needs, and remote learning forms part of a planned reintegration
• School is unable to open safely due to exceptional circumstances

Remote learning will always be agreed between school and families, and reviewed regularly to ensure it supports the child’s return to school as soon as possible.

What Remote Learning Looks Like

If your child requires home learning activities, these will be provided by the class teacher. Learning will always be age‑appropriate, linked to the curriculum being taught in class and designed to help your child keep on track with their peers

Activities will be shared at the start of the school week, and teachers will maintain regular communication with families. Completed work should be returned weekly so teachers can provide feedback that supports your child’s progress.

Online Learning Tools

Children will also have access to online learning through:

• TT Rockstars
• Ten Town

Each child has an individual login, which can be found in their planners. In addition, children are expected to continue with homework in line with their classmates:

• Reading for 20 minutes, five times per week
• Daily times‑table practice (around 10 minutes per day)

Our Commitment

Our aim is to ensure that any period of remote learning is high‑quality, meaningful and manageable for families. We will always consider your child’s age, needs and home circumstances, and we will work closely with you to support their learning and wellbeing.
