Personalised Support

At St Clement Danes School we are committed to meeting the needs of all students to ensure that they make the best possible progress. As all students progress at different rates, there may be times when a teacher feels that an individual may benefit from additional support. Such support could be provided in class or as a separate activity. In some cases, this may be because we feel a student is not completely reaching their potential and may need ‘a little extra push’ or it may be to ‘catch up’ in a particular area.

Tier 1 Provision

It may be appropriate for a student to receive small group support either inside or outside of the classroom setting. This is usually because a member of our teaching staff will be delivering a specific programme for the group of students to close any gaps or misunderstandings that have arisen in their learning. This type of support is time-limited, usually lasting for one term. We measure the students’ abilities at the beginning and the end of any additional support which shows us whether our actions have had an impact on the students’ learning. As an example, below you will find a selection of activities operating in Key Stage 3  & 4.

SEND Provision (additional needs) 

Further support may be required where evidence points to the student needing support that is ‘additional to or different from their peers’ until a student has been taught strategies or been provided with additional resources to help them access the curriculum independently. This is called 'special educational provision'.

For a few students with additional needs (SEND), highly differentiated and individualised interventions may be necessary. Examples of this type of provision include: Study Support (MFL withdrawal) and curriculum modification. This is known at tier 3 support.

Celebrating Success: Anchor Fund Initiative Raises Over £12,000

We are absolutely delighted to announce a tremendous success following the recent Anchor Fund ‘£25 for 25 Year’ initiative. Thanks to an amazing collective effort from our school community, we have raised a total of £12,709. This is a substantial amount that will make an immediate and positive difference to the learning environment and the opportunities available to our pupils We are incredibly proud of the pupils who fundraised with such enthusiasm and determination. Their commitment has been nothing short of inspiring, and we offer our congratulations to everyone who participated in raising such a significant sum. To honour these efforts, we will be presenting commemorative badges and rewards to the highest-raising form groups over the next few weeks. We would like to extend a huge thank you to the staff for supporting this initiative and ensuring that pupils were engaged in a wide range of fundraising activities.We also want to express our sincere gratitude to our parents and carers, as your generosity and support behind the scenes were instrumental in helping us reach this ambitious goal. Regarding the use of these funds, we will be meeting with the Student Council to discuss their proposals and finalise how best to invest this money back into the school to benefit all pupils. We are eagerly awaiting their inspirational ideas and will share the final investment plan with you once it is confirmed. The fundamental aim of the Anchor Fund is to support the educational development of pupils at St Clement Danes School, making projects possible that might otherwise feel impossible due to financial constraints. To that end, we will continue to keep the donation pages live so that any last-minute donations and outstanding fundraising money can still be submitted. Thank you once again for your incredible support; it was a great effort. Well done to all. MONTHLY DONATION ONLINE ANCHOR FUND 25 YEAR CELEBRATION DONATION PAGE
