Year 6 residential in Gibside

Year 6 have spent a couple of days at our residential destination of Gibside. I think everyone really enjoyed the trip. During their two days at Gibside they had activities like pond dipping, minibeast hunts, long evening walks and orienteering. Even with all this activity, the children were full of energy for the evening time. Where do they get their energy? Although many had no energy for the walk home (surprisingly). Here are a few photos of the trip.

Year 6 trip to the Farne islands

Year 6 have been on a trip to the Farne Islands today. The trip was a great success and I think everyone enjoyed themselves even if some people were feeling a little seasick. We braved the sea, we braved the birds attacking and we braved Karl's projectiles. Here are a few photos to remind you of your trip.

Marking Policy

To ensure that all children have their work marked in such a way that it is likely to improve their learning, develop their self-confidence, raise self-esteem and provide opportunities for self-assessment.

As a result of this policy there will be greater consistency in the way that children’s work is marked across the Key Stages.

Our Marking Policy is embedded in an Assessment for Learning Policy throughout the school and it links to the Homework Policy and Assessment Policy.
