Principles of High Quality Teaching and Effective Learning

• Our philosophy for high-quality teaching and learning is firmly based on research evidence and is supported by ongoing assessment.
• Our culture for staff learning is just as important as pupil learning. Staff are given the opportunity to engage with varied professional development linked to the current school priorities.
• There is a consistent approach to teaching and learning across the school with a monitoring cycle in place to identify areas of strength and weakness. This ensures consistently high standards are met by all teachers, thus ensuring all pupils are receiving high-quality provision.
• High-quality lesson planning and teaching and learning strategies are used across all phases and pupils will be able to articulate what and why they are learning.
• All pupils will take pride in their work and it will demonstrate progress over time
