Chapter I. Teaching through play at primary school
Teaching through play at primary school
Throughout Primary School, we give students a strong learning foundation. Students benefit from a solid base in all subject areas, with a clear focus on embedding English and Mathematics skills. Learning driven by student curiosity is encouraged, recorded and celebrated as part of an effective learning pathway.
Our expert Teachers provide a broad curriculum, stimulating wonder and the unique interests of the individual. Teachers then work on a one-to-one basis to explore strengths, challenges and set individual targets to track different rates of progression. Our goal is for every student to fulfil their potential through hard work and support until they are confident independent learners.
As we follow the English National Curriculum, our teachers have high expectations of students and differentiate for particular needs in the class. We acknowledge that every child is unique, with their own attributes and abilities. Therefore, our teachers are trained to plan and teach to the individual needs of their students, ensuring they make excellent progress. We make certain all students are challenged and supported in and out of the classroom.1
Learning outside the classroom is a very important part of life at BST to enhance development. We enjoy taking students on trips and engaging them with extracurricular activities through our after-school clubs every term.
BST is also an inclusive school, and we work with students and parents to ensure that each child fulfils their potential. Many of our students learn English as an Additional Language and we have a dedicated EAL department, who are on hand to support each child with their English fluency, reading and comprehension through targeted support.
At Key Stage 1 learning is broad and balanced. We provide rich and stimulating learning environments, where children love discovering new concepts, communicating and connecting subjects to everyday life.
Our Key Stage 2 learning integrates subjects so that we can form links between them and give coherence to children’s understanding. We choose themes across the school and break down work into termly and half-termly sections to ensure logical study progression. We also match teaching methods, activities and resources to the needs of all children through weekly plans, which enables effective communication between teachers and parents.
As a part of the Nord Anglia family, we work closely with the Julliard School in New York, to develop talented performing artists. The specialists at Juilliard, work closely with our teachers to support and develop Music and Drama provision, ensuring our students receive the best opportunities to develop in these subjects.
We also work closely with the Secondary Science and Art departments to develop our delivery of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) lessons, in collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Students frequently use the STEAM Centre, utilise cutting-edge resources and collaborate on global MIT challenges.
Play-based learning helps engage elementary students in their education and has cognitive, physical, social, and emotional benefits.
A few years ago, I began shifting to a play-based approach in my kindergarten classroom. Research extolled the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional benefits of play and called to mind Friedrich Froebel’s vision of kindergarten as a place where play and learning go hand in hand.
As I made small changes in my classroom, I began to understand that play is a primary and integral mode through which children make sense of the world, and that it is essential to their development and well-being. In addition, it supports skills like collaboration, communication, and creativity. Offering play can feel challenging when mandated programs and standardized tests are requirements of many school districts, but play-based learning is an effective practice for deepening understanding and engaging children. The key is finding a balance between academic expectations and the developmental needs of young students.
