Higher and Foundation pathways in our schemes of learning enable units of learning to be delivered at an appropriately challenging and measured pace for students - Equipment modifications - Pots with liquid level indicators, Easy grip whisks - Kitchen layout - Pre-prepared ingredients - Weigh out ingredients with students so students do not feel overwhelmed and not complete the task - Visual recipes - Time management support -Recipes with time allowed for each step to support the practical process. - Scaffolding -written tasks with clear steps chunked to reduce cognitive overload - Writing frames-When students need to do sensory evaluation, a word bank is provided. - Demonstrations -Teacher demonstration/modelling best practice; Teacher and students step by step demonstrations ### **Useful websites:** w[ww.aqa.org.uk/subjects/design-and-technology](http://www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/design-and-technology) w[ww.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize](http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize) w[ww.technologystudent.com/](http://www.technologystudent.com/) ### Curriculum - [Curriculum Information](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/curriculum-information) - [Departments](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments) - [Art](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/art) - [RSHE](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/rshe) - [Drama](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/drama) - [Study Plus/Literacy Intervention Team](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/ema) - [English](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/english) - [Geography](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/geography) - [History](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/history) - [ICT, Computer science & Business Studies](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/ict-computer-science-and-business-studies) - [Maths](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/maths) - [MFL](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/mfl) - [Media](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/media) - [Music](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/music) - [PE](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/pe) - [RE](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/re) - [Science](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/science) - [SEND](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/send) - [Sociology](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/sociology) - [Technology](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/technology) - [Citizenship](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/citizenship) - [Foundational Curriculum ](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/curriculum/departments/foundational-curriculum) #### Little Ilford School Rectory Road, Manor Park London E12 6JB #### Contact Us 020 8478 8024 020 8478 5954 info@littleilford.org ![Little Ilford Logo](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/images/logo/loog-footer.png) #### Useful Links - [ Calendar ](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/calendar) - [ ParentPay ](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/parents-students-parents/parents/parent-pay) - [ Library ](https://littleilford.newham.sch.uk/parents-students-parents/students/library) #### Follow Us Instagram © Little Ilford School.
