School Priorities for 2020 / 2021

Improve attainment and progress for all learners.

In particular:

• Priority 1 ~ To ensure that a curriculum of recovery and reconnection is embedded to respond appropriately to COVID-19  ~ Quality of Education/Leadership & Management/ Behaviour and Attitudes/ Personal Development
• Priority 2~ To ensure that a rigorous and sequential approach to the teaching of reading, continues to develop pupils’ confidence and enjoyment and enables them to read fluently and with comprehension  ~ Quality of Education/ Leadership and Management
• Priority 3 ~ To further develop Subject Leadership through Curriculum Teams which ensure that the curriculum intent and implementation are embedded securely and consistently across the school ~ Leadership & Management
