What are knowledge organisers?

A knowledge organiser is a set of key facts or information that pupils need to know and be able to recall in order to master a unit or topic. Typically, an organiser fits onto a double sided A4 piece of paper.

How will a knowledge organiser help my child?

Knowledge organisers will be made available at the start of each unit to help them remember what they are learning and to help them to see the bigger learning journey in their subjects. Instead of forgetting previous learning, students will continually revisit and retrieve prior learning from their memories. The current knowledge organiser is always displayed in the classroom and referred to frequently. Previous knowledge organisers and examples of children's work are kept in an accessible scrapbook that the children can look back at during the year. At the end of the unit the knowledge organiser is used as the basis of a fun quiz to ascertain how much we know, that we didn't know before.

How will a knowledge organiser help me to help my child?

Many parents/carers ask us how they can help to support their children at home. Many are worried that they do not have all of the subject specific knowledge to be able to help their children. The knowledge organiser highlights key terms and knowledge that will be taught at school, which you can talk about at home. Please feel free to upload any evidence to Seesaw (photo's, recordings etc) that show whether your child is demonstrating this knowledge at home too.
