Strategic Plan
The PDG is designed to support improving provision, support and learning outcomes for students who come from low-income families and are eligible for free school meals (eFSM). In this way the PDG is intended to help overcome this additional barrier which prevents more vulnerable children achieving their full potential.
As a school, we have identified priority areas which have been shown to be the most effective pathways through which additional support can have a positive impact on well-being and academic progress. These align with different aspects of our work relating to self-evaluation and improvement planning.
Our self-evaluation and improvement cycle is based around the following 3 school improvement priority areas:
- IA 1 and 3: Teaching and learning
- IA 2 and 4: Care, support and well-being
- IA 5: Leadership and Management
