At Elm Academy we all have high expectations and we feel that by having high expectations of ourselves and each other, we encourage those around us to have high expectations of themselves. A culture of high expectation leads to the highest achievers as we all thrive to better ourselves. Children and staff are challenged and supported to get the best possible outcomes. Children, with the support of their teacher, set themselves goals and targets which they then challenge themselves to meet.

To ensure all pupils can be challenged effectively we use Knowledge Organisers to develop pupil’s knowledge and vocabulary further. Please find the links below:

KS1 Knowledge Organisers

In KS1 we use Imprint to configure our Knowledge Organisers as it utilises colourful semantics and breaks down the information clearly to support pupils to access it.
