Aim: At Wheatfield we wanted to tackle the underachievement of our more able children by reorganising our curriculum to motivate all learners and create opportunities for more challenge.

Aim: To investigate teachers opinions of measures currently in place to ensure curriculum continuity between primary and secondary school.

Aim: To describe and evaluate methods used in the teaching of reading in a primary Year 6 Literacy Hour and a secondary Year 7 English lesson.

Aim: To explore methods of enhancing collaboration skills with key stage 1 pupils and to improve speaking and listening skills with pupils.

Aim: The main aim was to build and implement an approach to raising achievement using a creative strategy based on the current evidence about improving childrens motivation for writing. Specifically the objectives were: To raise the attainment in writing of an underachieving Year Two class through a creative approach. To improve pupils attitudes towards, and engagement with, the writing process. To make clear links to the Primary Framework Objectives for text, sentence and word level within an integrated approach.

Aim: The aim of this study was to identify and explore actions teachers can take to improve communication with students about their learning.

Aim: To identify actions teachers can take to improve learning through an examination of students academic performance in relation to prior attainment as measured by NFER Cognitive Abilities Test scores.

Aim: To improve the attainment (A-C %) of disaffected and underachieving GCSE PE pupils through the integration of a school-specific leadership model, to improve pupils attitudes towards and engagement with learning and to marginalise poor behaviour through implementation of the flexible model as a vehicle for citizenship, fostering a sense of belonging, equality, accountability, ownership and enjoyment.

Aim: The aims of this project were to create a smoother transition across key stages for teachers, pupils and parents, to improve collaboration across key stage transition and to develop teachers knowledge and understanding of each others curriculum/routines/events/lessons.

Aim: The original aim of the project was to investigate ways to raise boys attainment in English. We were aware that our GCSE top sets were heavily weighted towards girls, with often less than ten boys in a group of thirty plus, and we wanted to address this imbalance. The main aim of the study was to close the attainment gap between boys and girls.
