Learning at WD

​Our William Davis curriculum aims to:

  • Widen children’s KNOWLEDGE of the WORLD. We want our children to see themselves as local, national and          international citizens.
  • Increase children’s VOCABULARY. Words empower children to make sense of the world around them. A wide vocabulary helps children put their emotions into words, socialise with people, imagine and wonder.
  • ​​Develop their CURIOSITY and PASSION FOR LEARNING. These are characteristics of engaged learners.
  • ​Enhance CRITICAL thinking skills. Successful learners compare, analyse, sift, sort and ask perceptive questions.
 Our school values underpin all that we do at William Davis. We use them explicitly, especially when we reflect on our learning.
Did I give my best?
Did I persevere when I found something difficult?
Have I been honest about my own efforts and acknowledged others that may have helped me?
What am I proud of?
What oracy skills did I use?
Have I taken pride in the presentation of my work?
How did I help others and did anyone help me?
Did I make sure everyone was included?
Can I share an example of someone who deserves recognition?
