Navigation Primary School is a very popular, exciting and inclusive school dedicated to a broad curriculum and to achieving high standards with every pupil. The children are at the forefront of everything planned in school as we look to support their development socially, emotionally and morally as well as academically.
We want every child to be excited about coming to school each day and to leave having enjoyed their learning and been challenged to acquire new skills. Our curriculum seeks to give our children excellent core skills so that they can learn about the world around them and achieve their potential.

This can be done visually or just by talking through it. For some children giving them an option to order their own timetable or decide on what to do in breaks can help. You can download free images or pictures/words on Postit notes or a wipe off board are just as effective. We don't want children to feel overwhelmed, so we would discourage spending too long on each task.
Coping strategies: Various techniques and strategies that help achieve emotional regulation and manage strong emotions. The Zones of Regulation uses four colours to help children self-identify how they are feeling and categorise it based on colour. The aim is to also help children better understand their emotions, sensory needs, and thinking patterns.
As well as our online reading schemes we have curated a few other recommendations for you - we have tried to only use free material available online to support reading but there is a wealth of material available.

Laura Nobbs is our pupil support manager and she works with children across the school in a number of ways including mentoring, small group work and in class support. She is also able to work with parents and carers. A pupil support manager is a specialist teaching assistant with a wealth of experience of working with children.
Children learn at different rates and show a great variety in the ways in which they learn best. Teachers take this into account when they organise their lessons. This is known as differentiating the curriculum. However, some children still find it much harder to learn than others of the same age and may need extra help.
