Qualities and characteristics best defining the school

Smart Vision School provides a broad inclusive programme following the National Curriculum for England. The curriculum focuses on important life skills that are developed across subjects and beyond the classroom, extending pupils’ personal and academic development.
A strong sense of community across Smart Vision school is of paramount importance. Engagement through small class size and participation by all stakeholders is a cornerstone of our school.

Teaching approach of the school

Each area of learning and development is implemented through planned, purposeful play and through a mixture of adult-led and child-initiated activities. Play is essential for children's development, building their confidence as they learn to explore, think about problems and relate to others. All students learn by taking part in structured learning and play that is planned and guided by the teachers to meet the identified needs of each student. The school's teachers are continually assessing the balance between activities led by children, and activities led or guided by adults, responding to each student's emerging needs and interests, guiding their development through positive interaction and engagement.

In planning and guiding children's learning activities, our teachers reflect on the different ways that children learn and include different learning experiences and opportunities in their teaching. Three characteristics of effective teaching and learning are:

- Playing and exploring - all students investigate and participate in different experiences
- Active learning - all students are persistent and keep on trying when they encounter difficulties, with the teacher and students celebrating and enjoying their achievements
- Creating and thinking critically - all students are encouraged to develop their own ideas, make links between ideas, and develop strategies for doing things.
