Helping Your Child at Home

We strongly believe in the partnership between school and parents.

Working together helps children to reinforce learning and enables parents to feel confident in promoting learning at home.

To this end we have produced the following documents:

Read about how we teach maths at Mount Nod in our 'Maths Mastery' section of the website. Here you can find useful ways to help at home and see the calculation methods that we use with your child which should be mirrored at home where possible. Third Space Learning has also produced a helpful document which suggests ways you can support your child at home - click on the link below to find out more.
