Original Request

I seek such information held relating to maths/numeracy lesson planning for the Year 6 cohorts in the following IOM primary schools; Arbory, Laxey, Victoria Road and Willaston.

Specifically I seek the information actually used to inform, plan and execute the teaching and learning of maths/numeracy that was delivered during the week commencing 19th January 2026. This includes but is not limited to such long, medium and short term planning documentation for that week's lessons, any ongoing planning information created during the week of 29th January (or in the preceding weeks) noting that teaching and learning is of course a dynamic and continually evolving practice and such lesson planning could be expected to take account of ongoing teacher observation, pupil understanding, assessments (if any) and progress, problem areas etc. Where such documentation has been obtained from external sources e.g. English LEA, UK DfE documentation, White Rose Education etc please advise each source.
