This policy aims to highlight and disseminate good practice in teaching, learning and assessment. This good practice has been identified through looking at effective teaching within Gleniffer High School and current policies in education. We want every teacher in Gleniffer High School to be confident that, “all learners experience activities which are varied, differentiated, active, and provide effective support and challenge” (HGIOS?4 2.3).
Excellent teaching and learning is Gleniffer High School’s key priority. This priority is underpinned by our school vision and values, where we are committed to ensuring that all staff have the highest expectations and aspirations for every pupil. We continually strive to ensure that pupils’ learning experiences are in a caring and nurturing environment, where success is celebrated within and out with the classroom.
We are committed to a curriculum that provides an opportunity for achievement and attainment, a commitment which enhances improvement in Literacy, Numeracy and Health and Wellbeing. We strive to close the gap between the most and least disadvantaged young people and provide opportunities to ensure our children are equipped with skills for learning, life and work, and gain a positive and sustainable school leaver destination.
