CA London: Teachers and Mentors

TEACHERS and THERAPISTS

The heart of CA London is our teaching staff. We have an in-class teacher-to-student ratio of 1:7 in most lessons and, in addition to our full-time teaching staff, we have  other specialists – occupational, speech and language therapists and school counsellor are in house.

FORM GROUPS

All students are allocated a form-teacher who takes care of the students on a daily basis. The form teacher is the first port of call for a parent wishing to know how a child is doing both academically and socially. The form group meets three times a day.

MENTORS

This year we are introducing another level of care for our children. Two members of our staff have attended a special MENTOR training course to help better understand the requirements of our pupils.

TEACHING 

Our students have Provision Maps that are constantly reviewed and revised. We also follow  student needs as specified in Statements of Special Educational Needs or Education, Health and Care Plans.

We take a flexible, common sense approach to teaching. Differentiation is key to the success of our pupils. Since our classes are small, we do not need teaching assistants.

INTERVENTIONS

Pupils who need extra help in maths and English will be provided at least one 1-1 intervention a week.

HOMEWORK
The school day is long enough. Parents do not want homework so CAL is a no homework school. There are two exceptions: 1, if a parent wants homework set then it can be agreed with teachers. 2, Pupils working at foundation or GCSE level will need to do some work at home. This becomes a matter between the teacher, the student and the parent.
