School Development Plan
For the Academic Year
2013 - 2014
Warren Wood Primary School
This year’s School Development Plan concentrates most heavily on curriculum and our firm commitment to the raising and maintaining of standards throughout school, not only in English and Maths, but also in Foundation subjects. All subjects are taught, evaluated, re-addressed and redeveloped in a creative and cross-curricular way, taking into account the commitment and belief we have as a school in our own creative curriculum, which teaches children the skills necessary for life, learning about topics of interest that are relevant to their own life experiences, but also expand their understanding and tolerance of their community and the wider world.
It also shows a deep commitment to the development of teachers as leaders and managers outside of their own classrooms, as Subject Leaders, Middle Leaders and Senior Leaders. Staff have a clear understanding of their own roles within the structure of school and know how vital their role within school is in terms of what they contribute to school and the impact their leadership and teaching have upon the learning that takes place, attainment and achievement. A commitment of time and resources to monitor and achieve this has been given to all staff for their own Continuing Professional Development needs.
Other key aspects show the beginning building blocks of preparing school for the next stage of its’ journey as a two-form entry primary school, including a re-model and re-build of the current building to increase our capacity by 2015.
It is a time of change, but also great excitement. The staff are fully committed to the shared vision of providing a high quality education in a caring and supportive learning environment following our school motto of ‘Care, Courtesy and Consideration’.
