Gospel Oak Primary And Nursery School

[EduCativ]

We think Gospel Oak is a great school. We are very proud of the breadth of educational and extra-curricular opportunities we offer all our children. Life at our school is fun, happy, hardworking, and successful. We want our school to be a safe, welcoming place where children enjoy learning, work hard and achieve their best. We aim to provide a high standard of teaching and learning in lessons that are inspiring, broad and balanced. We have high expectations of our children's behavior and aim to help them develop into confident and self-sufficient individuals. We recognize and celebrate our rich and diverse school population. We aim to ensure that children, parents, carers, and staff enjoy true equality of opportunity and feel valued as part of the school community. We aim to work with parents and carers as partners in their children's learning.

Our mission:

• Uphold our commitment to being an inclusive, community school.
• Develop and enhance our broad and relevant curriculum.
• Maintain and enhance the overall quality of teaching and learning, so that it is outstanding.
• Provide every child with the opportunity to develop their interests and meet new challenges
• Sustain and enhance high-quality provision throughout EYFS to maximize learning opportunities and progress.
• Maintain high standards and rates of progress in core subjects that are above national averages in KS1 and KS2.
• Attain rates of overall attendance that are above national averages.
• Develop contexts for learning that are reflected in high quality, interactive learning environment throughout the school.
• Encourage all parents and carers to be partners in their children’s learning.
• Develop our extended provision to the whole community and other partners in the local area.

We provide a high-quality, rich, and exciting curriculum for all children, yet we know, from regularly monitoring progress, that some children will require extra provision that is additional to or different from the other children in their class.

Where this is the case, we will look at whether the child would benefit from being placed on the Special Education Needs Register. We would always do this in conjunction with parents. This allows the needs of the child to be considered in an in-depth way through an Individual Education Plan. This plan allows for additional or different provisions to be planned. These plans are reviewed and updated regularly.
