School Development Plan
Our School Development Plan 2022-23 is a working document that articulates the aims and vision of our Catholic School. It has been drawn up in consultation with staff, governors and pupils and a summary document has been shared with parents. It demonstrates the way in which we endeavour to achieve our Vision and uphold our Mission Statement and School Aims during the coming year.
The School Development Plan drives the development of our school, is a tool in which we can monitor our effectiveness and efficiency and a process by which we engage in Self-Evaluation.
The key areas on which we focus are related directly to the Framework for School Inspection (September 2022): The Quality of Education, Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development and Leadership and Management.
At St. Peter’s, the School Development Plan is set within local and national contexts.
The following will direct our work and development this academic year:
- A child centred and coordinated approach to safeguarding
- Response to the White Paper 'Opportunity for All: Strong schools with great teachers for your child'
- A review of the progress made within SDP 2021-2022
- Response to the SEND Review 'Right Support, Right Place, Right Time'
