School Development Plan Priorities 2017- 2018
What is a school development plan?
The School Development Plan (SDP) is the school’s plan of action. It outlines our priorities in a structured way so that the school makes the planned rate of progress. It provides a benchmark against which this progress is monitored. It is backed up by a programme of initiatives and projects designed to continue improving standards of achievement and the quality of educational experiences, which we offer our children.
The SDP is discussed at every Curriculum and Standards Committee meeting and is reported on at every full Governing Body meeting.
OUR SCHOOL DEVELOPMENT PLAN PRIORITIES FOR 2017- 2018 ARE:
- Provide interventions for children at risk of falling behind in phonics, reading, writing and mathematics so that outcomes for children at the end of Key Stage 1 are in line with national in reading, writing and mathematics
- Embed Talk For Writing (T4W) throughout the school by providing whole school training and by monitoring enrichment activities, classroom environment, teaching and children’s progress
- Timetable guided reading sessions into Key Stage 1 to promote reading and comprehension skills (March 2017 inspection)
- Continue to monitor the progress of all children in Early Years Foundation Stage with a particular focus on disadvantaged boys ( March 2017 inspection) and bring school outcomes closer to the national for all groups including disadvantaged boys
- Continue to monitor attendance, celebrate good attendance through class and individual rewards and work closely with poor attending families to support improvements (March 2017 inspection)
