College Improvement Plan
Our Improvement Plan focuses on three key objectives to enhance student learning, raise attainment, and strengthen community engagement.
Objective 1: Improve Attitudes to Learning
We are moving from managing disruption to building positive learning habits. Predictable routines in every lesson, from a calm, silent start to an orderly finish, will remove low-level disruption and help every student arrive ready to learn. Students will know their next steps after every lesson, with clear learning journeys in their books and a regular chance to fix and improve their work. We will also work to close the gaps that missed lessons create, make attendance a shared priority across the college, and develop a strong sense of belonging for every student, especially those who are most vulnerable.
Objective 2: Raise Attainment, Particularly for Our Most Vulnerable
Our aim is for vulnerable students to make sustained progress in line with peers who have similar starting points. Teachers will check understanding throughout lessons, make key content and vocabulary explicit, and give every student a knowledge organiser to support their learning. We will strengthen reading and language development, including fluency, key vocabulary and oracy. Our schemes of learning will be designed with vulnerable students in mind from the start. All Key Stage 3 students will be screened for fluency, handwriting, spelling, writing accuracy and number, so that gaps are spotted early and support is put in place quickly.
Objective 3: Strengthen Leadership and Management
Strong leadership drives improvement in every part of the college. We are developing the expertise of our middle and senior leaders through regular, calendared review, more lesson visits, useful feedback to teachers, and quality assurance of curriculum resources. Every student who needs support beyond our ordinary provision will have a plan in place and a named person overseeing it. Consistent self-evaluation will keep our work focused and responsive.
