School Development Plan

The School Development Plan (SDP) is the most important document for us as a school and indeed the whole school community.

The SDP: 

  • Outlines what we know about ourselves
  • Outlines what we see as our priorities for action
  • Puts these priorities into a timescale so that they are achievable and can be measured
  • Outlines the strategic priorities agreed by the Governing Body, Headteacher and Senior Leaders

The SDP plan is underpinned by detailed plans for each curriculum area.

Our Key Areas for Improvement are
