Friday Focus on Reading
It is always inspiring to walk around Bushey Meads School during Friday morning’s Character Development Time and visit CDC groups reading together; the whole school silent apart from one class-reader, enjoying developing their all important literacy skills and a passion for reading which so crucially underpins all learning across the curriculum.
It is always great to see Character Development Coaches like Mr Mitchell featured in the media clip modelling this vital aspect of our week to students in his CDC group.
