How many children are in the school?
We are a small school and we currently have approximately 110 pupils on roll. This means that we are fortunate to have small class sizes with a high ratio of adults to children.
What does a typical day at Broadwater look like?
In most year groups, the mornings are geared towards some of our core subjects such as English and Maths. In the afternoon, pupils tend to learn through the "wider curriculum" subjects which are guided at Broadwater by our project approach. You can read more about our curriculum structure and aims here
Further information about each of the subjects can be found on our Core subjects page and our Wider curriculum page.
How do you cater for different learning needs?
We are strongly of the opinion that the majority of children learn best alongside their peers, supported by skillful adults who can adapt and scaffold the learning to meet their individual needs, whether they need additional support or extra challenge. This means that most educational needs are catered for in the classroom. However, we also have a range of strategies and tools for helping children with other skills at other points in the day. Our SENCo coordinates these tools. You can read more information about our approach to special educational needs by clicking on this link to our SEND page.
