Here you will find insightful articles written by CCCS Staff who explain a little more about we do, and why we do it the way that we do.
Every year, we enter every pupil in Forms 5-8 into a National Maths Challenge. The challenge
consists of problem solving questions, requiring the pupils to use their Mathematical skills and
knowledge to find the answers. Pupils work by themselves in test conditions. There is no
pressure involved, and we treat it as a fun activity rather than a formal examination.
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) is the framework that we follow at CCCS in both our Nursery and Reception classes. It is used in England to set the standards for the learning, development, and care of children from birth to five years old, and applies to all Early Years settings, including nurseries, pre-schools, childminders, and Reception classes in schools.
In September 2024, the school introduced a new Enrichment Programme, inviting all pupils from Years 3–8 to choose activities to participate in during the final two lessons of each week. The programme has been hugely successful and has continued to evolve over the past year and a half.
In this article I am hoping to explain a little about how we plan for pupils’ learning across the different subject areas and age groups at CCCS. This is the first of a series of articles designed to explain what we do and why, which we will be writing over the next couple of terms.
