Overall Effectiveness

Data shows exceptional attainment and progress

Children’s communication and social skills fully equip them for the next stage of their education

Amazing learning environments, engage and inspire learning

Parental engagement work inspires collaboration and trust to improve outcomes for all children

Grade descriptors for outcomes for pupils

Outstanding (1)Throughout each year group and across the curriculum, including in English and mathematics, current pupils make substantial

and sustained progress, developing excellent knowledge and understanding, considering their different starting points.The progress across the curriculum of disadvantaged pupils, disabled pupils and those with special educational needs currently

on roll matches or is improving towards that of other pupils with the same starting points.Pupils are typically able to articulate their knowledge and understanding clearly in an age-appropriate way. They can hold

thoughtful conversations about them with each other and adults.Pupils read widely and often across subjects to a high standard, with fluency and comprehension appropriate to their age.

Children in Year 1 achieve highly in the national phonics check.For pupils generally, and specifically for disadvantaged pupils and those who have special educational needs, progress is above

average across nearly all subject areas.From each different starting point, the proportions of pupils making and exceeding expected progress in English and in

mathematics are high compared with national figures. The progress of disadvantaged pupils matches or is improving towards that of other pupils nationally.

The attainment of almost all groups of pupils is broadly in line with national averages or, if below these, it is improving rapidly.Pupils are exceptionally well prepared for the next stage of their education, training or employment and have attained relevant

qualifications. Compared with the national average for all pupils, higher proportions of pupils and of disadvantaged pupils, progress on to a range of higher and further education establishments, apprenticeships, employment or training. These destinations strongly support their career plans.

All – Personal Development, behaviour and welfare, (including SMSC)

Grade descriptor

Outstanding (1)Pupils are confident, self-assured learners. Their excellent attitudes to learning have a strong, positive impact on their

progress. They are proud of their achievements and of their school.Pupils discuss and debate issues in a considered way, showing respect for others’ ideas and points of view.High quality, impartial careers guidance helps pupils to make informed choices about which courses suit their

academic needs and aspirations. They are prepared for the next stage of their education, employment, self-employment or training.

Pupils understand how their education equips them with the behaviours and attitudes necessary for success in their next stage of education, training or employment and for their adult life.

Pupils value their education and rarely miss a day at school. No groups of pupils are disadvantaged by low attendance. The attendance of pupils who have previously had exceptionally high rates of absence is rising quickly towards the national average.

Pupils’ impeccable conduct reflects the school’s effective strategies to promote high standards of behaviour. Pupils are self-disciplined. Incidences of low-level disruption are extremely rare.

For individuals or groups with particular needs, there is sustained improvement in pupils’ behaviour. Where standards of behaviour were already excellent, they have been maintained.

Pupils work hard with the school to prevent all forms of bullying, including online bullying and prejudice-based bullying.Staff and pupils deal effectively with the very rare instances of bullying behaviour and/or use of derogatory or

aggressive language.The school’s open culture actively promotes all aspects of pupils’ welfare. Pupils are safe and feel safe at all times.

They understand how to keep themselves and others safe in different situations and settings. They trust leaders to take rapid and appropriate action to resolve any concerns they have.

Pupils can explain accurately and confidently how to keep themselves healthy. They make informed choices about healthy eating, fitness and their emotional and mental well-being. They have an age-appropriate understanding of healthy relationships and are confident in staying safe from abuse and exploitation.

Pupils have an excellent understanding of how to stay safe online, the dangers of inappropriate use of mobile technology and social networking sites.

Learning , Teaching and Assessment

Grade descriptor

Outstanding (1)Teachers demonstrate deep knowledge and understanding of the subjects they teach. They use questioning highly

effectively and demonstrate understanding of the ways pupils think about subject content. They identify pupils’ common misconceptions and act to ensure they are corrected.

Teachers plan lessons very effectively, making maximum use of lesson time and coordinating lesson resources well. They manage pupils’ behaviour highly effectively with clear rules that are consistently enforced.

Teachers provide adequate time for practice to embed the pupils’ knowledge, understanding and skills securely. They introduce subject content progressively and constantly demand more of pupils. Teachers identify and support any pupil who is falling behind, and enable almost all to catch up.

Teachers check pupils’ understanding systematically and effectively in lessons, offering clearly directed and timely support.Teachers provide pupils with incisive feedback, in line with the school’s assessment policy, about what pupils can do to

improve their knowledge, understanding and skills. The pupils use this feedback effectively.Teachers set challenging homework, in line with the school’s policy and as appropriate for the age and stage of pupils, that

consolidates learning, deepens understanding and prepares pupils very well for work to come.Teachers embed reading, writing and communication and, where appropriate, mathematics exceptionally well across the

curriculum, equipping all pupils with the necessary skills to make progress. For younger children in particular, phonics teaching is highly effective in enabling them to tackle unfamiliar words.

11

Page 12:  · Web viewSt Peter’s School Development Plan 2016-19 “Proverbs, Problems and Possibilities Mission Statement As a Church of England School we seek to provide a Christian education

Teachers are determined that pupils achieve well. They encourage pupils to try hard, recognise their efforts and ensure that pupils take pride in all aspects of their work. Teachers have consistently high expectations of all pupils’ attitudes to learning.

Pupils love the challenge of learning and are resilient to failure. They are curious, interested learners who seek out and use new information to develop, consolidate and deepen their knowledge, understanding and skills. They thrive in lessons and also regularly take up opportunities to learn through extra-curricular activities.

Pupils are eager to know how to improve their learning. They capitalise on opportunities to use feedback, written or oral, to improve.

Parents are provided with clear and timely information on how well their child is progressing and how well their child is doing in relation to the standards expected. Parents are given guidance about how to support their child to improve.

Teachers are quick to challenge stereotypes and the use of derogatory language in lessons and around the school. Resources and teaching strategies reflect and value the diversity of pupils’ experiences and provide pupils with a comprehensive understanding of people and communities beyond their immediate experience. Pupils love the challenge of learning.

St Peter’s Vision for Teaching and Learning and AssessmentTeaching is engaging, children are interested and motivated to learn. Staff and children can talk about the next steps to improve their work.100% of teaching and learning observed is at least good throughout the year

Together: Leadership and Management

Grade descriptor

Outstanding (1)Leaders and governors have created a culture that enables pupils and staff to excel. They are committed unwaveringly to

setting high expectations for the conduct of pupils and staff. Relationships between staff and pupils are exemplary.Leaders and governors focus on consistently improving outcomes for all pupils, but especially for disadvantaged pupils. They

are uncompromising in their ambition.The school’s actions have secured substantial improvement in progress for disadvantaged pupils. Progress is rising across

the curriculum, including in English and mathematics.Governors systematically challenge senior leaders so that the effective deployment of staff and resources, including the pupil

premium and SEN funding, secures excellent outcomes for pupils. Governors do not shy away from challenging leaders about variations in outcomes for pupil groups, especially between disadvantaged and other pupils.

Leaders and governors have a deep, accurate understanding of the school’s effectiveness informed by the views of pupils, parents and staff. They use this to keep the school improving by focusing on the impact of their actions in key areas.

Leaders and governors use incisive performance management that leads to professional development that encourages, challenges and supports teachers’ improvement. Teaching is highly effective across the school.

Staff reflect on and debate the way they teach. They feel deeply involved in their own professional development. Leaders have created a climate in which teachers are motivated and trusted to take risks and innovate in ways that are right for their pupils.

The broad and balanced curriculum inspires pupils to learn. The range of subjects and courses helps pupils acquire knowledge, understanding and skills in all aspects of their education, including linguistic, mathematical, scientific, technical, human and social, physical and artistic learning.

Pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and, within this, the promotion of fundamental British values, are at the heart of the school’s work.

Leaders promote equality of opportunity and diversity exceptionally well, for pupils and staff, so that the ethos and culture of the whole school counters any form of direct or indirect discriminatory behaviour. Leaders, staff and pupils do not tolerate prejudiced behaviour.

14

Page 15:  · Web viewSt Peter’s School Development Plan 2016-19 “Proverbs, Problems and Possibilities Mission Statement As a Church of England School we seek to provide a Christian education

Safeguarding is effective. Leaders and managers have created a culture of vigilance where pupils’ welfare is actively promoted. Pupils are listened to and feel safe. Staff are trained to identify when a pupil may be at risk of neglect, abuse or exploitation and they report their concerns. Leaders and staff work effectively with external partners to support pupils who are at risk or who are the subject of a multi-agency plan.

Leaders’ work to protect pupils from radicalisation and extremism is exemplary. Leaders respond swiftly where pupils are vulnerable to these issues. High quality training develops staff’s vigilance, confidence and competency to challenge pupils’ views and encourage debate.

What we’re aiming for What we’re going to do Who When Evidence of ImpactCoaching- staff skills are developed and the GROW model used by all staff

Grade descriptors for the effectiveness of the early years provision: quality and standards

Outstanding (1)The pursuit of excellence by leaders and managers is shown by an uncompromising, highly successful drive to improve

outcomes or maintain the highest levels of outcomes, for all children over a sustained period of time.Incisive evaluation of the impact of staff’s practice leads to rigorous performance management and supervision. Highly

focused professional development improves the quality of teaching.Safeguarding is effective.There are no breaches of statutory welfare requirements.Children’s health, safety and well-being are greatly enhanced by the vigilant and consistent implementation of robust

policies and procedures.Leaders use highly successful strategies to engage parents and carers, including those from different groups, in their

children’s learning in school and at home.A highly stimulating environment and exceptional organisation of the curriculum provides rich, varied and imaginative

experiences.Teaching is consistently of a very high quality, inspirational and worthy of dissemination to others; it is highly responsive

to children’s needs.

16

Page 17:  · Web viewSt Peter’s School Development Plan 2016-19 “Proverbs, Problems and Possibilities Mission Statement As a Church of England School we seek to provide a Christian education

Assessment is accurate and based on high quality observations. It includes all those involved in the child’s learning and development. Provision across all areas of learning is planned meticulously. It is based on rigorous and sharply focused assessments of children’s achievement so that every child undertakes highly challenging activities.

Children are highly motivated and very eager to join in. They consistently demonstrate curiosity, imagination and concentration. They are highly responsive to adults and each other. They do not distract others or become distracted easily themselves.

The vast majority of children are developing a very good understanding of how to keep themselves safe and manage risks. They demonstrate exceptionally positive behaviour and high levels of self-control, cooperation and respect for others.

Children make consistently high rates of progress in relation to their starting points and are extremely well prepared academically, socially and emotionally for the next stage of their education. As a result, almost all children, including disabled children, those who have special educational needs, disadvantaged children and the most able, are making substantial and sustained progress.

Gaps between the attainment of groups of children and all children nationally, including disadvantaged children, have closed or are closing rapidly. Any gaps between areas of learning are closing.

The Early Years action plan- will address these areas and be presented to the SLT and full GB in the Autumn term. It will be evaluated throughout the year and a final report given to the GB at the end of the academic year.

Grade descriptors for overall effectiveness

Outstanding (1)The quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding.All other key judgements are likely to be outstanding. In exceptional circumstances one of the key judgements may be good,

as long as there is convincing evidence that the school is improving this area rapidly and securely towards outstanding.The school’s thoughtful and wide-ranging promotion of pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and their

physical well-being enables pupils to thrive.Safeguarding is effective.
