STANLEY ROAD

Stanley Road is an exciting and successful primary school providing an excellent standard of education. We are extremely ambitious for all our pupils and achieve great results through our exemplary behaviour, knowledge-rich curriculum and explicit teaching... In English we teach a broad curriculum covering reading, writing, grammar and oracy. We follow an approach to the teaching of writing called 'The Write Stuff'. This was implemented throughout school in 2017-18 and lead to a significant increase in the quality of writing. We have a curriculum of high quality texts which are used throughout school that builds children's knowledge of literature and their reading ability in a structured way. We study a range of modern and classic fiction including books such as The Hobbit in Y6, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe in Y5, The Iron Man in Y3 and A Bear Called Paddington in Year 2.
