1 OVERTON GRANGE SCHOOL CURRICULUM YEAR 10

2 Numeracy and Literacy Numeracy, along with Literacy, is the key to improving learning and raising standards in all three Key Stages. We believe students will benefit from a consistency of approach and the links made across the curriculum. We recognise a need to ensure practice is embedded within all departments enabling improvement in these skills. We believe that all teachers share responsibility for the teaching of numeracy and literacy across the curriculum, in partnership with parents. Numeracy Students will emerge with a better ability to describe, explain and justify their thinking, become more confident in using numbers in context and handling data, be more accurate in their graphical skills and in the use of measurements, and develop the ability to apply numerical understanding and skills confidently thus enabling them to solve problems in a variety of curriculum contexts and enter the numerical demands of adulthood with confidence. Overton Grange Students should be able to Carry out basic calculations Use mental arithmetic, calculators and technology when appropriate Understand units of length, mass, capacity and time Use mathematical form such as tables, graphs, charts and coordinates Have skills in estimation, approximation, quantity and value Understand probability and risk Read meters, dials and scales Have financial awareness; manage and budget money

3 Literacy Students will emerge with competent literacy skills, enabling them to continue after their schooling as confident and articulate communicators, fully prepared to enter the adult world; enabling them to read, understand and access examination materials so that they are able to achieve their potential; developing their abilities to think and learn.
