Experience an EPIC Journey of Discovery We weave subjects as appropriate to explore the world we live in. We actively engage on a journey of discovery. We ask big questions. We listen intently. We share and discuss ideas and knowledge. We form values with an understanding that we will grow and change. We embrace who we are and we continue to learn about ourselves, each other and the world with kind, courageous and open minds. Practise, Prove and Perfect…EPIC Exploration and Evaluation Perseverance Independence Challenge, Co-operation & Collaboration, Creative Thinking To achieve our Behaviour and Attitude values we have broken skills into achievable steps. Steps support children to implement sophisticated interpersonal skills. Teachers weave these skills through the curriculum ensuring learners have opportunities to actively engage, practise and evaluate. Exploring the World… Exploring Me Learning at Ranvilles is ambitious and explorative, challenging children to think hard, with open-minds, to push new boundaries and become path makers. Together we focus on discovering what is happening now to enable our pupils to be kind, educated citizens and knowledgeable, compassionate future leaders. Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural (SMSC) lines of enquiry and learning are at the heart of our broad and balanced curriculum. Children actively employ school EPIC Learning Skills and STAR Behaviour Attitudes to explore global cultural differences, similarities and values. They evaluate, reflect and actively engage in research, discussion, collaborative and individual pursuits to establish considered, personal viewpoints. Our diverse curriculum provokes deep thought and reflection; core questions linked to Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural learning (SMSC) drive collaboration and a quest for knowledge and understanding. We have designed a curriculum that fulfils the requirements of the National Curriculum, the meets the needs of the pupils in our school, promoting British Values of: Breaking the boundaries of a homogenous locality, pupils are encouraged to explore the world and learn about themselves and their place in it. Children will ask questions to check understanding; develop vocabulary and build knowledge; negotiate; evaluate and build on the ideas of others; justify ideas with reasons; and effectively communicate. Learning journeys facilitate opportunities to identify values children wish to uphold now and in the future, learning today for the challenges of tomorrow, employing specific learning behaviours. We have high aspirations for all our pupils. We are dedicated to developing happy learners who are emotionally intelligent and who achieve their best. Ranvilles Junior focuses on achieving our values through stars. Each star represents a concept and reflects how we work, learn and play together.
