Our Current Timetable

 Priority Given to Learning
At Tinwald School we have discussed our priorities and wrote these as belief statements.

We Believe:
†    Literacy is the core of a child’s learning and is required for children to access the rest of the curriculum. Therefore we believe it is best practice that children receive a minimum of 2 hours 40 minutes literacy instruction and engagement a day, 4 days a week.

†    Mathematics literacy is essential for daily living and future learning. Therefore we believe it is best practice that children receive a minimum of 1 hours mathematics instruction and engagement a day, 4 days a week.

†    We believe that exploring and making sense of yourself and the world around you is essential for daily living and future learning. Therefore we believe it is best practice that children receive a minimum of 1 hours thematic studies instruction and engagement a day, 4 days a week.

At Tinwald School a daily timetable would look like this:

*A guide only, we recognise it’s not a perfect world and that other pressures are placed on our timetables i.e. it’s ok to teach maths on a Friday
