or group is left behind and achievement is celebrated

across the curriculum.

gifted and talented children are met through a combination of school based and external

sources;

other and their environment. They are respectful towards adults and in turn are always

treated with respect;

From KS1 to KS2 all children achieve at least 2levels of progress in reading, writing and

mathematics;

illiteracy are additionally supported and in possession of a Literacy Plan, which is reviewed

and updated throughout their time at CVPS;

Under-attainment, as measured by the schools internal systems reduces on a year-on-year

basis. No group of pupils under -attains (taking into account statistical significance)

All teachers deliver lessons which are consistently good or better and the proportion of

outstanding lessons increases on a year -on-year basis.

Teachers are well supported by Teaching Assistants, who are valued by adults and children

for their contribution towards learning.

vision meeting was considered. The following areas were identified as possible uses for our

vision fund (30K):

1. The conversion of the Key Stage One Hall into a Performance Studio and Gym. Thissupports our work towards goals in Standards and Achievements, Care and Provision.2. The development of cooking as a feature of the curriculum including parental

involvement and a new facility within the DT room. This support s our work towards

goals in all four themes.

3. A fund to support disadvantaged pupils to be used, for example, for the purchase ofICT equipment, items needed for participation in extra-curricular clubs and funding

for specific events. This supports our work towards goals in Standards and

Achievement and Care.

park to reduce the proportion of families driving to s chool. This supports our work

towards goals in Care and Provision.

6. To support initiatives to encourage and increase parental involvement in the school,such as a coffee bar and encouraging parents to coming in to read with children
