Primary Schools
What will it look like?
There’s enormous room for variation, depending on the structure within which C&T finds itself working.
For instance, we’ve begun a prototyping process with three primary schools in the West Midlands – they’re collaborating with each other and sharing C&T between them. Their focus is on connecting the extended day back to the curriculum to see if each can reinforce the other.
An alternative model can be that the secondary school which your school feeds is brought on board, and C&T works across your entire pyramid and in collaboration with the secondary school. C&T’s focus could be various things, including successful transition or SEAL.
Whatever the model, there’ll be some general themes:
Original and engaging learning for your students through planned classroom experiences.
Personalised staff professional development with bespoke creative lesson plans.
A sustained programme to transform two curriculum areas and equip teachers to go it alone.
A C&T practitioner trained and equipped with the latest digital media technology.
School-wide access to candtnetwork.org and C&T’s other resources and media.
Your attendance at two national senior leadership symposia meeting your peers across the Network.
plus a range of evaluation, support, quality control, profile-raising and networking activities.
