Priorities for the Year The Willows • To continue to raise standards in writing across the school to impact on reducing the gender gap • To develop a consistent language of maths across the school with focused opportunities for children to apply their maths knowledge through real experiences • To ensure that work is planned with clear differentiation to allow progress within all key groups across school Haveley • To continue to raise standards in writing across the school to impact on reducing the gender gap and to continue to bring Age Related outcomes closer to National • To develop teaching practice that supports the progress of all groups, especially the HA (through use of peer coaching model) • To further develop differentiation to support progress and independence for children with SEN • Shared Priorities • To ensure that the new curriculum develops and excites all learners (ensuring that key basic skills are applied) • To develop assessment structures and tracking within the new curriculum to enable progress and achievement to be clearly measured • To develop the use of new IT software and hardware to enhance learning and enable delivery of the new ICT curriculum • To ensure that the use and development of The Bridge supports the narrowing the gap agenda for our vulnerable families and children
Challenges for the future • Keeping standards high in light of 85% notional 4B test outcomes in 2016, in a world of no levels • Showing progress within a non-standardised system that won’t show true value added until 2023 • The changes to the SEN code of practice, less funding, more need from school budget for supporting children with SEN and higher expectation of progress for all children • Being aware that Ofsted frameworks will change to match the higher expectation and the implications of this • Keeping to our beliefs and values within this context
What key questions does this information raise for Governors? How can Governors support the schools in the face of increasing challenge?
