Vision Statements
Our aim is to provide a stimulating environment where we can be challenged to explore and discover the world around us in order to develop the skills and qualities necessary to succeed.
This aim can be channelled through developments across five main areas. We have consulted with school users to establish what we want the provision in our school to be like. From this, we have developed descriptions of where we want to be in the next three years.
Achievement and Standards
Standards above national averages are achieved by supporting all children to have high expectations of themselves in order that they make outstanding progress across the curriculum and so that they develop the skills and attributes that will allow them to succeed throughout life.
Teaching and Learning
Consistently high quality teaching is dynamic and imaginative allowing adults and children to be active partners in the learning experience. Children are engaged and challenged through effective teaching methods and resources which encourage independence and collaboration to develop their skills, knowledge and understanding.
Curriculum (& ICT)
Children have equal access to a creative and innovative curriculum which excites and challenges them, building upon previous learning. They have opportunities to discover more about themselves and the world around them through exploration and investigation inside and outside of school through a range of relevant contexts. Technology is integrated within the curriculum and used as a tool for developing skills across subjects and themes as well as providing access to the wider world.
Care, Guidance and Support
The school is an environment where children feel safe and secure to take risks and challenge themselves. There are clear, robust systems in place that track pupil progress and provide appropriate intervention to ensure outstanding achievement. Children are supported to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and therefore grow to be healthy members of society - physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Extended Schools
We are a community school that works beyond our building and the school day to enrich the opportunities for pupils and their families. We collaborate with relevant agencies, to ensure that the provision is maximised for all regardless of their background.
