Key Principles
Collaboration provides opportunities for professional learning and should be actively promoted within school, with the wider school community and beyond.
The school team works together to embrace change, share resources and support each other whilst building a curriculum that meets all learnersโ needs and is authentic to the local, national and international contexts.
Effective collaboration enables the school to take a multi-disciplinary approach to learning. Departments and disciplines collaborate to establish deep connections in the learning.
Collaboration is one of our key pedagogical principles in the classroom which enables learners to understand and value difference and diversity.
Involving learners in decision making about their learning ensures that our curriculum is learner-focussed. This takes a wide variety of forms and involves pupils taking greater responsibility as they move through our school.ย
Working with other settings, schools and further education institutions provides important opportunities to share learning and develop joined-up experiences for learners.
