How will the curriculum be matched to meet my child’s needs?

At Meldreth Primary School, we ensure Quality First Teaching by using a range of strategies to meet the diverse needs of our pupils. These strategies include:

  • Classroom support: Visual timetables, dyslexia-friendly resources, and specialist equipment (e.g., writing aids, fidget toys) to accommodate different learning styles.
  • Curriculum access: Adult-supported group work, individualized planning, and one-to-one support where needed (e.g., for language modification).
  • Independent learning: Visual aids, scaffolding tasks, and accessible resources to encourage self-sufficiency, with opportunities for more able learners to tackle open-ended challenges.

Literacy support includes:

  • Small group interventions for reading, writing, and spelling
  • One-to-one phonics and spelling support
  • Targeted literacy groups to enhance reading comprehension skills.

Numeracy support includes:

  • Small group guided teaching and targeted interventions
  • Practical resources like Numicon and regular assessments to address gaps.

Speech and language support includes:

  • Individual interventions from Speech and Language Therapy Service
  • Spirals group work to develop speaking and listening skills.

These strategies help ensure all pupils can access and engage with the curriculum, promoting their development across all areas.
