School Aims

Aims of the school:

To provide a rich and meaningful curriculum targeting personalised needs of the children
To enable children to learn and raise their levels of achievement in a safe, secure learning environment
To enable pupils to develop strategies to better manage their behaviour and make considered choices

We will do all this by:

Using the ‘Essentials’ Curriculum supplemented by the ‘Pebbles’ Curriculum to plan the curriculum over the year to ensure coverage and progression for the children
Setting targets for the children which are specific and measurable so we can see the progress the children are making
Using ‘I can’ statements with the children to develop their sense of what they can do and raise their self esteem and self belief as learners
Using the ‘Forest School’ approach to deliver an exciting and relevant curriculum to engage the interests of the children
Be committed to staff professional development to develop skills and knowledge to support the children further
Providing a safe, secure learning environment for all children
Valuing all children, staff and families equally
Offering support for our families through our social Inclusion team and Family support worker
Monitoring the work of the school and reporting to Governors regularly on progress

Our work is underpinned by these shared values:
