Purposeful learning opportunities that foster independence and creativity

Ciplun

Across the school, pupils are highly motivated by regular opportunities to follow their interests. During ‘over to you time’ and ‘amser sialens’ sessions, they explore, question and create with enthusiasm. Younger pupils use Block Play independently to design a tram and cable car for the Great Orme, while older pupils act out story characters using props to explore how actions and expressions show feelings. Staff observe carefully and intervene skilfully through questioning, modelling and adapting the environment to extend learning. These experiences help most pupils develop confidence, independence and the ability to reflect thoughtfully on their learning.
