Each subject has a detailed, ‘Crucial Knowledge’ which includes previous learning, vocabulary, the knowledge which is crucial for our children to understand and how this could be extended.

Retrieval Practice
At Cheswardine School, staff inform their practice with current research and are always looking for ways to improve the outcomes for our children. Retrieval practice is a powerful learning technique we use to help children strengthen their memory and deepen their understanding of what they’ve learned. By regularly recalling information they’ve previously studied—through activities like quizzes, discussions, or review exercises—students reinforce their knowledge and make it easier to remember in the long term. This approach helps children not only to retain facts but also to connect ideas and build confidence in what they know, supporting them as they progress through their learning journey.
