Raising Achievement Plan (RAP)
Every year, we use our school self- evaluation to help identify the priorities for school development during the coming year. These are organised into the 4 key areas of: Outcomes for Children and Learners; Quality of Teaching, Learning and Assessment; Personal Development, Behaviour and Welfare and Effectiveness of Leadership and Management. In 2018-19 our priorities are:
The aims of our plan for this year are built on the following premises:
- Loving each one of our children will ensure they are emotionally ready to learn.
- Every child is capable of achieving the expected level.
- Verbal feedback is the most powerful tool.
- Parents want the best for their children.
- Being part of a MAT adds value and an expanded MAT benefits our community.
- Staff learning new skills and working in different ways brings a sense of vibrant, forward thinking.
