Aims and Intent of our school ~ Key Priorities

After careful consideration of school and its specific needs, data analysis, national initiatives, OFSTED and the need to set a manageable number of development targets, which would be attainable within the resources and time available to school, the following were identified as priority development areas over the academic years 2022 to 2025 under the umbrella theme of ‘Championing ambition for all pupils’:

• To further develop ongoing recovery provision to address changes in pupils' early language and social, emotional and personal development needs. Quality of Education/Leadership & Management/ Behaviour and Attitudes/ Personal Development

• Continue to embed changes to the curriculum and ensure subject leaders develop effective systems of assessment for all foundation subjects. Quality of Education/ Leadership & Management

• Ensure that all staff are well trained and confident to teach the new phonics programme, ensuring that fidelity in delivery underpins an increase in the  proportion of children who crack the phonics code. Quality of Education/ Leadership & Management

This will be achieved through:

• A strategic focused approach to early intervention for Reading, Writing and Phonics; supporting learning through additional support where needed.

• Continued redesign of Subject Leadership ~ Curriculum Teams, each ‘headed’ by an SLT member and consisting of at least 1 Core Subject with staff taking collective ownership
• Ensuring ALL children are challenged regardless of standard of attainment enabling all to reach full potential
• Ensuring More Able children are stretched to reach their full potential, broadening and deepening their knowledge, skill set and understanding using Mastery techniques
• Use of Digital Technologies to enhance the learning of all children
