Curriculum

Our ambition at Little Lever School is to enable every student to ‘achieve things they never thought they could’.Our students receive expert teaching every minute of every lesson of every day. Within lessons, that achievement is dependent on pupils ‘learning’. There is a relentless focus on the learning of our pupils with SEND and our disadvantaged students. The knowledge they learn is world class and provides the tools to access the very best life chances. 

Our Habits: 

In order for pupils to manage their attention the following habits are taught and practised by students, thus freeing up working memory for learning and remembering. 

• We are quiet and sensible when we are outside our classroom (Corridor Climate)
• We are ‘on time’ (punctual)
• We follow Perfect Climate in our classrooms
• When an adult raises their hand and counts down 3…2…1 we are silent on 1
• We track the teacher with our eyes and listen when they speak
• We always follow a reasonable request
• We have our equipment at all times 
• We wear the correct uniform in the right way

To achieve our vision, our approach to teaching and learning is realised through our pillars of effective teaching. 

We know that high quality teaching benefits our pupils with SEND and help to directly overcome the challenges of pupil learning which all learners grapple with.
