Forward together

Key Objectives

Health and Wellbeing of all pupils

• To instill a love of physical activity with the aim of promoting fitness, wellbeing and mental health of all pupils at Penpol School. To achieve this we need to:

• • Regularly assess the fitness of all pupils and use this to create individual goals.
  • Ensure that all Phase Groups are provided with a broad range of extracurricular opportunities including the Arts, catering for all ages and abilities throughout the academic year.
  • Improve the quality and range of equipment and resources available during breaktimes and in PE lessons.

Raising Standards

• To ensure the level of teaching and learning enables all pupils to reach age related standards in English and Maths, as set by the 2014 Curriculum. This will be achieved by:
  • Ensuring that regular and collaborative planning and rigorous assessment sessions are conducted between Phase Groups.
  • Using a systematic approach to the teaching and assessment of spelling.
  • Using MAPPIX to promptly assess and identify pupils in need of SWAT intervention (Support With Attainment Targets) and provide immediate and coordinated support.
  • Provide daily intensive and differentiated phonic sessions with supporting phonic packs related to the individual ability of each child.
  • Organise regular motivational events to encourage pupils and parents/carers to work collaboratively with the school to improve standards in spelling and timestables.
  • Supporting and developing parental knowledge and understanding of phonics and mathematics by providing training evenings.

Creativity

• To ensure creativity is interwoven and fundamental in the teaching of all curriculum areas with the aim of promoting imagination, self-confidence and true a love of learning in all children. This will be achieved by:

• • Ensuring that all Subject Coordinators are consistently promoting and monitoring their curriculum areas in terms of resources, subject knowledge, innovation and high-level outcomes.
  • Providing creative opportunities for all pupils through homework activities centred on ‘Self Motivated Learning’.
  • Having set curriculum workshops and days throughout the year which involve whole school participation and provide enriched and exciting learning experiences.
  • Looking beyond the academic expectations and identifying, promoting and celebrating the creative attributes within each and every pupil.
