Year 6 2025 - 2026

Mr Scott

I am really pleased to be working at Rode Heath Primary School teaching Year 6 and being part of the wider community. I have been teaching in Cheshire for fourteen years and enjoy creating new and exciting learning opportunities.

I love watching and taking part in a variety of sporting activities. In my spare time I enjoy playing football, tennis and golf. One of my favourite places to play golf is in Dumfries and Galloway, near to Kirkudbright, even though I lose a lot of golf balls!

I am excited to be working with your children. It is important to me that every child feels included and supported (and has some fun along the way!).
I have three children and a large Labrador! There isn't a lot of spare time but when I can I enjoy reading, going for walks and I love to visit the Seaside!

Welcome to Year 6

Welcome back! We hope you have had a lovely summer holiday and enjoyed spending time with your loved ones.

We have an exciting year ahead. During this first term, our focus is about history and key events that have shaped Britain and the World. Lessons will consist of exciting and engaging content from the entire curriculum. To help explore this theme, the topic book for the first half term is: The Place for Me: Stories About the Windrush Generation by Black Cultural Archives. The book comprises of twelve moving tales of sacrifice and bravery, inspired by first-hand accounts of the Windrush generation. I will not say anything further as you will have to read it to find out more...

We will also be following our Maths - No Problem! scheme of work, which incorporates lessons linking to real-life problems. Furthermore, it ensures that topics are covered from previous years so that children have a great understanding of maths and how it can be applied. 

Alongside all of this, we are very much aware of the importance of children being happy, safe and secure in school and to help us do this, we follow our Hearts and Minds curriculum. More information about our Hearts and Minds curriculum can be found using this link: Hearts and Minds.

Thank you for your continued support. It is going to be a great year!
