What a week for @AlcesterAcademy. The Year 9’s had an incredible Super Learning Curriculum Day focused on STEM. These days are essential in embedding key knowledge and skills to consolidate their KS3 learning. #BroadAndBalanced #Thriving

This week our #FridayFeelingis from @LyndonSchool, about how Performing Arts is so much more than a subject - it’s a space where learners grow, express themselves, and shine. Our broad and balanced curriculum empowers young people to build confidence, creativity, and resilience, helping them discover their voice both on and off the stage. From drama to dance, learners are encouraged to take risks, collaborate, and celebrate their individuality in a supportive and dynamic environment. #PerformingArts #TheLyndonSchool #CreativeCurriculum #ConfidenceThroughCreativity #StudentSuccess #FuturePerformers #EducationMatters #ArtsInEducation #BuildResilience #BroadAndBalanced #CreativeLearning #InspireAchieveBelieve @CockshutHillSch @ErdingtonHallPS @KinetonGreenPS @Ninestiles @PegasusPrimary @TheOaklandsBham @solihull6thform @YarnfieldSch

Brilliant Pop Art final pieces were created by Year 6. The children combined all their learning of the recent topic and chose how to create their Ben Day dots after experimenting with bubble wrap and sequin mesh. #art #broadandbalanced

Some pastel work that Y4 have produced which is inspired by Fauvism - these images capture some of the amazing architecture in our local area. Do you recognise any of the buildings? @ImpactMAT #broadandbalanced #art #pastel #fauvism

The children’s artistic endeavours never cease to amaze us. Here are some collograph prints produced by Y5 and etchings produced by Y3. @ImpactMAT #art #printmaking #broadandbalanced

Our last summit of Thievely Pike, and with it the penultimate day of term, the children have thoroughly enjoyed their geography fieldwork. @ImpactMAT #geography #LOTC #4Rs #Broadandbalanced

It was a bit bleak on Thievely Pike today, but our Y6 children, from Artisans class, demonstrated excellent resilience as they preserved, despite the inclement weather, to summit the peak. @ImpactMAT #resilience #LOTC #Geographyfieldwork #broadandbalanced

As part of our 'Magnanimous Mountains' topic, our Y6 children summit Thieveley Pike in Lancashire. This is one of many geography trips that introduce and develop children's fieldwork skills. @ImpactMAT #broadandbalanced #geography #4Rs

Our Y6 children have been inspired by the work of M C Escher who used tessellation and geometry to create optical illusions. The children have used their tile design to create repeated patterns and contrasting colours for visual appeal. @ImpactMAT #broadandbalanced #art

Our Y3 children enjoyed their visit to @deanclough where they produced concertina books capturing architectural features from photographs of some of Calderdale’s most interesting buildings. The children thoroughly enjoyed their visit. @ImpactMAT #4Rs #Broadandbalanced

Here are some more incredible models and dioramas that the children in Y4 have produced as part of their holiday homework - astounding! Thanks so much to both parents and carers for helping them with their projects. @ImpactMAT #Titanic #Y4 #Holidayhomework #broadandbalanced

Our Y4 children have wowed us with some truly incredible Titanic themed holiday homework. Mr Sladdin and Mrs Tindal have been waiting eagerly at the school gate in anticipation of what’s to come! Thanks to parents for helping with their projects. @ImpactMAT #broadandbalanced

Y8 had awesome physical coding experiences the last week of term making Christmas lights flash and snowflakes sing through the Micro: bit. #broadandbalanced

Aahil, in Y4, created this truly wonderful holiday homework to capture the water cycle. He was just one of the fabulous Phase 2 children who came to PROUD this week to show off and share their achievements. @ImpactMAT #Broadandbalanced #4Rs

Year 5 children received their “Feather License” in art, and have created these masterful illustrations using ink and quill to great effect with these captivating portraits of Frida Kahlo.@ImpactMAT #Broadandbalanced #creativity

Wow! Year 2 have worked incredibly hard on their Take One Picture entry for @NationalGallery. Here is a sneak peek of what they have been up to! @ImpactMAT #art #broadandbalanced #photomontage #sculpture #site-responsive

Y6 are loving the kayaking @DoeParkWAC and the weather certainly won’t dampen our spirits! @ImpactMAT #broadandbalanced #4Rs #confidence #teamwork #relationships #outdooreducation #resilience

“Begin by learning to draw and paint like the old masters. After that, you can do as you like; everyone will respect you.” - Salvador Dali @ImpactMAT #broadandbalanced #art #culturalcapital #experimental

Fascinating to read the stereotypes in the comments section 🙄 As a PE teacher, I found that skateboarding provided a sense of purpose and belonging for pupils who were fundamentally resistant to traditional PE activities. Any thoughts? #PhysicalEducation #BroadAndBalanced

I always forget to take photos, but this artwork @BoothroydAcad was so incredible, I couldn’t resist! #art #broadandbalanced I love how they’ve analysed and recreated the image. Incredible!
