More Able
At Lochinver House, we deeply value and embrace the diverse needs of our More Able pupils. We believe in nurturing and challenging these pupils across all areas of their development, whether academic, creative, musical, or sporting, ensuring they reach their full potential.
Pupils who demonstrate exceptional abilities are carefully monitored and assessed to ensure they are continually stretched in line with their strengths. We recognise that each child has their own unique set of talents and needs, and we provide tailored opportunities for growth that align with their individual interests and abilities. Whether they excel in academic subjects, the arts, or sports, we ensure that they are given the right level of challenge and support to thrive.
Our broad, differentiated curriculum offers opportunities to stretch more able children, allowing them to explore deeper aspects of subjects while still maintaining a solid foundation of core knowledge. This approach is implemented flexibly by both class and subject teachers, who work to ensure that all pupils, regardless of their starting point, are encouraged to become independent learners. For more able pupils, the curriculum is extended and enriched to allow for deeper exploration, independent inquiry, and critical thinking.
The More Able register is a dynamic tool that is regularly updated to reflect the current abilities and needs of each child. Inclusion on the register is based on continuous monitoring and assessment, and pupils may move on or off the register as their needs evolve over time. This flexibility ensures that every pupil receives the right level of support and challenge at all stages of their journey.
In addition to the academic and co-curricular opportunities available within the school, Lochinver House takes great pride in recognising and celebrating the wide range of talents our pupils possess. We encourage pupils to pursue their passions outside the classroom, providing them with access to a wealth of extracurricular activities and competitions
The outstanding achievements of our pupils, both past and present, serve as a testament to the opportunities for success that Lochinver House provides. We are committed to fostering a culture of excellence where every child is given the tools, the encouragement, and the challenge to succeed in their chosen area, ensuring they feel supported in pursuing their aspirations with confidence.
