How we are improving

We are currently working very hard to improve our performance and as of January 2021. We have ambitious plans to improve many aspects of school life, including:

• To build capacity for sustained improvement by investing in and developing leadership at all levels.
• To improve SEND leadership, curriculum and individual support, ensuring that all provision matches the needs of all pupils.

• To improve the provision for all pupils in the EYFS, ensuring that pupils know and remember more, by:
  • developing the progressive sequencing of the curriculum
  • enriching our environment and enhancing how the pupils access learning in the setting
  • developing our interactions within the environment to extend learning

• To increase the percentage of pupils who achieve age related expectations in reading at the end of reception, year 1 and year 2.

If you have any questions about these roadmaps or our detailed plans for improvement, we would be very happy to talk to you about this — please contact us.
