Insch School Standards & Quality Report 2018-19 Insch School Standards & Quality Report 2018-19 1 Standards and Quality Report 2018-19 Context of the School Insch School is a large, rural, mixed non-denominational primary school situated in the village of Insch, Aberdeenshire. We serve a catchment area that is socially and economically diverse. Over the past 5 years the community of Insch has grown significantly. Within the school there are no pupils within SIMD Deciles 1 to 5. 1% are within SIMD 6, 5% within decile 7 and 93% within decile 8 and 9. 6% of our pupils are entitled to FSM and £21,600 was allocated as Pupil Equity Funding for session 2018-19. This will rise again next session to £24,000. The emotional and social needs of our parents and families has also changed and the school has worked hard to meet this changing dynamic. Our school roll now sits at 357 P1 to P7 pupils and 120 Nursery pupils. We have 14 classes. The school is part of the Huntly Cluster and pupils can transfer to The Gordons School, Huntly and Inverurie Academy or further afield. The school’s Journey to Excellence commenced in August 2014. Our SLT consists of Mrs Conner, Head Teacher, Mrs Chalmers and Mrs Stirling, Depute Heads. 1 Early Years Senior and 2 Early Years Lead Practitioners and a Cluster Early Years PT play a pivotal role in leading change in our Nursery. Our committed teaching team of 16 class teachers work collegiately to lead change in our school. This team was initially supported by an ASN Nurture team who worked intensively in the school. This facility is no longer in place however the nurture approach is now being embedded across the school and is supported by an ASL team of 2 part time teachers and 10 part time PSAs who work alongside our teachers and pupils. This year a part time Pupil Support Worker was employed through the school’s Pupil Equity Fund allocation and has supported pupils and families. We work to provide a nurturing, ASD/ dyslexia friendly learning environment. Inclusive practices and an appreciation of diversity is at the heart of our vision, values and aims. Our staffing is supplemented with an art specialist as well as core staff who delivering French, Health and PE. We are supported well by our Parent Council and PTA as well as our valued Parent Volunteers who help provide support and challenge for our young learners in a variety of ways. The effective running of the school is supported by an Administrator, Clerical assistant, Janitor, Cleaners and Catering team. Our pupils engage well with the life of the school through a wide range of pupil led lunchtime clubs and After School Clubs. These enable as many of our pupils as possible to succeed in wider achievements out with the classrooms as well within. At Insch School we celebrate diversity and inspire all our young learners to reach for the stars and achieve their very best. We strive to create an inclusive and nurturing learning community. Quality learning and teaching is at the heart of all that we do. Our child friendly values ensure all pupils know and follow our behaviour expectations. Our Values: Aiming High, Being Safe, Showing Respect, Valuing our Community. Self-evaluation Summary: At Insch School we have led a 4year period of strategic change in response to the changing dynamic of the local community of Insch. This is based on 4 years of thorough self-evaluation across the school, working with parents, pupils, staff and all stakeholders. The vision for the school is ambitious and focuses on improved outcomes for all our pupils. All staff demonstrate that they are committed to the change and embrace the many initiatives that have led to the collegiate nurturing approach we have established in the school. Our 5 main stories summarise our capacity for improvement within leadership and management, learning provision and success and achievements. These are: 1. Developing our Vision, Values and Aims: Reach for Stars. (Leadership and Management) 2. Leadership of Change (Leadership and Management) 3. Meeting Learners Needs (Success and Achievements) 4. Learning and Teaching (Learning Provision) 5. Collegiality and Professional Learning (Leadership and Management) Moving forward our key improvement priorities are to continue to increase attainment across Literacy and Numeracy, further develop the Literacy and Numeracy curriculum, continue to develop the Early Years Nurture approach within nursery and across the school and continue to close the gap of our identified, vulnerable learners using Pupil Equity Funding. 2 Improvement Plan Priorities 2018-19 Strategic priorities Current Targets QI & GIRFEC Curriculum Design and • Teacher group to work on what we already have ACHIEVING Refresh - To refresh our and select what is to remain, what is to go.
