On our INSET day at the beginning of the academic year, staff and Governors met to discuss the school’s targets for the year 2024-2025. Each year the school is required to identify areas that need to be developed and possibly improved. These targets become the basis of the School’s Development Plan and throughout the year staff, Governors and children work together to achieve these targets. We would really like to involve parents and children in the process. Hopefully, by informing you about the targets, you will be able to work with us to ensure that this very successful school becomes even more successful!

Target 1: To build on existing exemplary behaviour management strategies (OFSTED 2022) that will enable all staff to better support and understand the SEMH (Social, Emotional & Mental Health) needs of all children.

Target 2: To improve attendance / absence procedures and data within the school so that the new statutory guidelines for FPNs are fully adhered to

Target 3: To offer opportunities for all staff to identify areas for their own professional development and undertake training for CPD via The National College website.
