A Growth Mindset
A mindset is a belief about yourself and your
most fundamental qualities like ability, faith, personality,
political views, talents etc.
Mindset: Fixed Growth
Your belief: Intelligence is a fixed trait Intelligence is cultivated through learning
Your priority: Look clever, not stupid Become more clever through learning
You feel clever: Achieving easy, low effort successes and outperforming others
Engaging fully with new tasks, exerting effort, stretching and applying skills
You avoid: Effort, difficulty, setbacks, higher-performing peers
Easy, previously mastered tasks
Growth vs. Fixed Mindsets
A growth mindset enables children to:
Embrace learning and growth Understand the role of effort in
creating talent Maintain confidence and
effectiveness in the face
challenges and setbacks
…and it can be taught. It’s never too late!
Why is mindset important?
The Power Of Yet
I’m not good at _____... Yet!I can’t do ______... Yet!I tried but it didn’t work… Yet!
English and Maths
• In English children work with their class teacher.
• In Maths children work across 3 groups. Groups are divided based on the children’s needs. The challenges in each group will overlap and the children will be continually observed to see if they are still in the best fit group.
• Levels are no more
• Children will be assessed against age expectations within the year
• Currently going through Year 6 sample papers

A represents pupils who were absent. B represents pupils who were working below the level of the test. D represents pupils who have been disapplied from the national curriculum. T represents pupils working at the level of the assessment but unable to access the test. W represents pupils who were working towards but have not yet achieved the standards needed for level 1.
The children achieved beyond expectation, they surprised and delighted us! We are very proud of them all!
Progress has accelerated throughout the school, but particularly in Year 6.
More than that, a record number of children achieved level 5, which is the national target for pupils at the age of 14: 62% reading; 35% writing and 54% maths.
In reading and maths, 20% more children achieved level 5 than in previous years.
Not only were more than half of our children able to perform a full 3 years ahead of expectations but 16% achieved level 6 in maths, which is equivalent to GCSE.
That’s astounding!
