Building on the foundations laid in EYFS, lessons continue to be practical and engaging, and to foster a love for learning.
We don’t call our children the Explorers for no reason. Chapter House pupils study their world through a variety of themes across science, humanities, art, and design technology.
In Key Stage One, our Explorers investigate their home through nine exciting topics: Marvellous Me, The Magical Toy Maker, Come With Me to Africa, Seaside Rescue, Castles, Polar Regions, Scientists at Work.
Movement For Learning
Children in Key Stage One engage in a range of daily activities designed to hone their motor skills and develop a greater sense of control over their bodies. Loughborough University collaborated with Chapter House to pilot and refine the “Movement for Learning” programme to improve children’s academic learning and behaviour. Our Occupational Therapist, Joanne Duston, helped to support the project and runs the daily activities.

Roles Of ResponsibilityKey Stage One brings new experiences and opportunities for greater responsibility and teamwork within the school community. Children can volunteer as Playground Buddies to develop their sense of responsibility, social skills and to create a positive and inclusive playground atmosphere. We also have a Student Voice Committee encouraging children to make decisions and be involved in shaping the school environment. |
