Tackling underperformance is a key issue for most secondary schools. Additional funding announced in this years budget is specifically targeted to support personalised learning; & one of the three main priorities for this expenditure is to support intervention & catch-up provision for children who have fallen behind in English & maths. More of the money is being targeted at secondary schools because of the evidence of fewer students meeting national expectations in the end of KS3 tests than at KS1 & KS2. The KS3 Supporting Maths titles are photocopiable activities, linked to other relevant curriculum subjects, which help pupils catch up in maths. Teachers are having to cater for a growing number of lower ability pupils in the mainstream classroom & these materials are likely to be used by Maths teachers, LSAs, & SENCOs. They can be used to support students working within the classroom or those who have been extracted. Each page will include very clear teachers notes, enabling any adult to immediately see the purpose of the page. ...

An excellent new series of photocopiable maths activities from Andrew Brodie specifically written for lower ability children in mainstream classrooms who need & additional or different help.

This series builds on Andrew's aptitude for making things really straight forward for less able pupils. It offers a systematic approach to spelling from the starting point of synthetic phonics through to the observation of phonic patterns in more complex words. Some of the children using this series will be working a year, or even two years behind their year group but the activities still need to be relevant, interesting & enable pupils to catch up with their peers. Repetition & practice are key features of the ' Supporting' series & every target in these books will have an introductory display page, focusing on a particular phoneme, followed by an activity page. All the books include 'target' record sheets showing NC objectives, templates for indiviual education plans, & progress charts to track achievement. ...

Tackling underperformance is a key issue for most secondary schools. Additional funding announced in this year's budget is specifically targeted to support 'personalised learning' & one of the three main priorities for this expenditure is 'to support intervention & catch-up provision for children who have fallen behind in English & maths'. More of the money is being targeted at secondary schools because of the evidence of fewer students meeting national expectations in the end of KS3 tests than at KS1 & KS2. The KS3 Supporting spelling titles are photocopiable activities, linked to other relevant curriculum subjects, which help pupils catch up in spelling. Teachers are having to cater for a growing number of lower ability pupils in the mainstream classroom & these materials are likely to be used by teachers, LSAs, & SENCOs.

This series, like Supporting Literacy, builds on Andres Brodie's aptitude for making things really straightforward for less able pupils. Teachers need materials that are suitable for the increasing number of lower ability children in the mainstream classroom. These children who need 'additional' or 'different' help (roughly one in six children fall into this category), are often supervised by classroom assistants. National Test results indicate that children, especially boys, are struggling with their writing. ' One in five children who enter secondary school are officially behind in reading & writing.' Inspectors also reported on the continuing gap between girls & boys, which they say is particularly pronounced in writing. All activities are linked to the new Literacy framework through a process of 'tracking back' & are intended to help lower ability pupils make progress in order to catch up with their year group. Each learning objective is addressed by one or more pages & each page will include notes for teachers enabling anyone using the sheet to see its purpose immediately. Recording & monitoring pupil's progress are integral to all books. ...
