Literacy & Numeracy Framework Information

As detailed in our Spring Newsletter here is the information regarding changed to education in Wales and the introduction of the Literacy and Numeracy Framework
 
As you know, the Welsh Government has been making some quite important changes to the
education system in Wales. The first of these changes was the new reading and numeracy
tests which every pupil from Year 2 to Year 9 sat during the summer term. The second major
change is the new Literacy and Numeracy Framework which you may have heard about in
the press.

The Framework is a planning tool that builds on the work we have been doing in recent
years to raise standards in literacy and numeracy and states the standards we as teachers
should be striving for our pupils to achieve. The Framework has been a statutory part of the
curriculum since September this year, and the school is currently working to revise our
curriculum to meet the new expectations of the Framework.

We will be using the expectations in the Framework to set work which improves each pupil’s
literacy and numeracy skills. The Framework makes raising standards in these essential
skills a priority, but it does not replace the National Curriculum, so there will not be a big
change in the content of lessons or in what your child learns.

We will also be using the Framework to assess pupil progress in these skills. By comparing
a pupil’s work against the expectations set out in the Framework, we will be able to set
targets to support them in improving their literacy and numeracy skills. From the academic
year 2014/15 there will be a statutory duty for us to report to you annually on your child’s
progress in literacy and numeracy as measured against the Framework.

There will be an opportunity for you to discuss your child’s progress during our usual
Annual review, where you will also be able to ask any questions you may have about the
Literacy and Numeracy Framework and the school’s plans for its implementation. In the
meantime it is possible to see the Framework by visiting:
