- Chilwell Croft Academy is a very happy and improving school for children aged four to eleven. The school currently has children on roll representing over 30 nationalities, speaking 40 different languages. We are proud to be part of a multicultural community, and actively celebrate the diversity of our school. We aim to provide an environment where children can make progress academically and develop personally. Everything we do is focused on this. We spend a lot of time and effort developing the culture of our school. The physical environment is welcoming and orderly – our artist in residence works with children to show off their art skills and this is exhibited throughout the school. Our pupils learn to behave, have a good attitude to learning, and respect each other. Every pupil has a planner and is a member of a house team to help them do this. Pupils take pride in their work as evidenced by the presentation in their books. They value our rewards system and say they feel safe in school. Developing the highest quality teaching lies at the heart of our school improvement agenda. We celebrate success and share good practice whenever we can. We are very proud of our pupils and their families. Here, every child is truly valued for his or her contribution and encouraged to grow in confidence. A real strength of our school is the very positive relationships between staff and pupils and within peer groups. In partnership with parents, we aim to enhance the learning experiences for all children with SEN/additional needs in Chilwell Croft Academy. To ensure the delivery of this entitlement for all children, we work following the new revised Special Educational Needs Code of Practice (SEN COP). We work closely with many external agencies to support children in all areas of the curriculum. At Chilwell Croft Academy, we are committed to ensuring that every child succeeds and reaches their full potential. EAL is used for pupils whose first language is not English. These pupils may have recently arrived in the country or are being brought up in homes and communities where languages other than English are used. In the educational environment, they now have to learn English in addition to languages they already know and use, and they have to use English to access subject content in different curriculum areas. Our EAL students come from a wide range of ethnic, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds. Some of our EAL students arrive in school having had little or no formal education while some have prior experience of formal education and with literacy skills in one or more languages. On arrival, a proportion of these pupils have no or very little understanding of English. View full school
