Happiness and Wellbeing
The happiness and wellbeing of our staff and children is a priority. Strong, close relationships between staff and children are an exemplary feature of the school. The highest expectations are underpinned by clear and concise systems and processes and ensure that our teachers have the time and space to do what they do best; plan and teach experiences that will motivate and inspire our children.
Everyone an Expert
We believe that everybody in the world is the best at something. We aim to provide an inspirational learning environment designed so that children have access to a range of opportunities on a daily basis. There is time for the budding artist to refine their sketches or the future poet to practice their performance techniques. We encourage leadership at all levels for staff and pupils and encourage everyone to develop and lead in an area of their choice.
Culture of Improvement
Everyone within our academy is dedicated to being the best that they can be. Children are trained to critique their own work as well as that of others and are keen to ask for advice about how to improve. This is also true of our staff team who, through high quality CPD provision and coaching sessions, are encouraged to debate and reflect upon the way they teach to support each other’s development.
Exceptional Outcomes
Our children will achieve very well at all statutory assessment points. We assess continuously to make sure planning and teaching is responsive to meet the needs of the individual. Children receive same day interventions and also have the opportunity to access tailored provision areas where they can practise and consolidate their own personal targets.
Family Dining
Staff play a key role at lunchtimes and help to facilitate our system of family dining. During this time, children reinforce our core values of great communication, resilience, confidence, independence and working as a team when serving each other, clearing away and socialising.
Parental Engagement
Parents play a key role in their child’s development and we expect levels of engagement at the school to be remarkably high. We provide regular workshops to help our parents know more about the teaching and learning methods that their children are using in school. We meet with parents twice a year to discuss progress in detail as well as inviting them into classrooms half termly to view the learning that has taken place.
Enrichment opportunities
Opportunities to take learning beyond the classroom are vast. As our school grows we will be looking to develop our learning environments inside and outside to provide exciting resources and activities. We want our children to have the opportunity to experience nature and to participate in creative and sporting activities. We value first hand experiences: learning is at its most powerful when connected to an emotional or sensory experience.
Staff family
As a small team it is essential that all staff are willing to be flexible and adaptable and prepared to ‘wear different hats’ as the needs arise. We expect our staff to support each other and be prepared to pitch in with whatever is needed to ensure that we consistently deliver an excellent experience for our children throughout the school day and beyond.
