Finding out your thoughts...

Over the next few months we are going to be sending out questions on health and physical education and to find out what your thoughts are regards this curriculum area.  There are quite a few aspects to this, so rather than send out one large document, we thought we would break it down to ask a few questions at a time on the hope that more would have the time to feedback.  It is important to us that we know your thoughts !  Looking forward to hearing back from you all...:)

We have managed to get to the final stage of developing our Ashley School Charter (2011 - 2013).
We look forward to your feedback.  A shorter version will be coming out to you all this week and the full version is available to read via the school office. Any feedback / thoughts please put them into a sealed envelope and put in the office - we will review them all at next weeks Board meeting (the 29th June)...
Look forward to hearing your thoughts... (positive and constructive!)  :)

Charter Development

There has been a great deal of consultation and thought from many people to produce the Ashley School Charter.  Its foundation comes from the needs of the students and from the community.   Information and feedback for this document has been from knowing the students needs, the consultation with the learning community, our schools programme of self-review and our understanding of the schools assessments data.

This is our plan for the future.        
     
We look forward to sharing more with you and hearing your thoughts ...

Charter Development

We had a great meeting on Monday with staff that has set us up well for today's session to develop the Ashley School Charter. The charter is a document that basically describes who we are as a school, where we want to be, and how we are going to get there.Should be interesting!

Board Meeting


The Board took part in and observed how Numpa testing is done in the school. We quickly discovered that NUMPA is a very thorough test that informs teachers well about next step learning for the kids. We also have a better appreciation about the efforts that the staff have put onto this form of assessment and as well as the nature of maths education in schools.
We are now looking forward to a similar experience with Reading testing.

Testing to see if this really does work. Cheers.
