A report on a 4 days placement in St. Hubert's Catholic Primary School

Forewords

During the period of 4 days that I have spent at St. Hubert's catholic Primary school in Birmingham, I have learnt a lot. Here, I have observed the literacy lesson in fundamental level. During this period, I have also observed that how literacy skills are taught. The whole time was very much informative, and I have achieved much more about primary education of pupils that I can deliver in the future to people for their guidance.

Introduction to the School

ST Hubert's Catholic Primary School is an over-subscribed, regular size voluntary aided primary school, where I have spent four days that were full of information. It is a school with just over one third of the pupils coming from minority ethnic groups and slightly above the national average EAL (2012 census). It is a kind of entry school with 213 students. All kids have had little pre-school knowledge, with about half of the students coming from the self-governing pre-school knowledge. The number of SEN students at school action plus along with statements is somewhat over the national average, according to the census of 2012.

The overall school's work is directed by its catholic ethos along with the mission statement. The staffs are judged to be good with numerous exceptional features at their last OFSTED inspection. Numerous employees have been retired and promoted, ensuing in a new assistant head, 4 new instructors in addition to an exceptional number of advanced training assistants.
