Planning
School improvement planning is a continuous process. Consequently, this School Improvement Plan Summary is an organic document, outlining goals and current plans, As it is not rigid, it will alter as evaluation and review occur at times during the year. Our whole learning community will continue to be involved in this process through consultation, helping to build capacity for future improvement.
Development
This plan, therefore, sets out how we aim not only to maintain performance but also to raise overall school standards, individual pupil achievement and to place staff development at the heart of school improvement. It also documents the dynamic relationship with the wider community, for example through offering extended services, such as the Breakfast Club and After-School Club.
