Got our report yesterday.
The actual report itself is ok- various bits to improve (which we were aware of and are already addressing)- won't take much to get back into the "good" judgement catagory (which is where we were a few years ago.)
Some of the teachers had a bit of an off day (some of the feedback from lessons was very surprising- some very good teachers came out with RI.)
I work with an amazingly dedicated team of teachers and TAs (think 12 hour working days) who give way over and above to their pupils both in and outside of the classroom. It's such a wonderful happy school- beautifully behaved, polite, caring pupils- pastoral care is amazing, loads of extra curricular opportunities etc.etc.
It knocks spots off the so called "Outstanding" primary school my DDs went to where the data was fab (more to do with the fact that we have a very good Kip Mcgrath centre than the teaching due to this being a grammar school area) but SN was crap, bullying not dealt with and the only clubs available had to be paid for.
Our data on the other hand ain't great... we have around 30% on SA and SA+ and another 10% who have statements and the general academic ability of the last few years has been poor. It's not in a great catchment.
The first part of our report claims:
"This is a school that requires improvement. It is not good because..."
It.
Is
Not
Good.
The language is so obviously deliberately provocative-It serves two purposes- to destroy moral and panic parents.
I know the education system is not all it could be.
I know there are crap teachers in the profession.
But do they really think that destroying moral is the best way to motivate?
Fucking Gove
