Haslam Park Vision Statement.
Our vision for the future, that we strive towards every day in the present.
By 2027 our data outcomes will consistently evidence that Haslam Park is a school where we have the highest expectations of students and adults, where every student and adult, no matter their starting point, SEND or socio-economic status is expected to work as hard as they can, and behave as well as they can, without qualification.
By 2027 Haslam Park will be a school where we are well known for our truly great, evidence-based teaching & learning, where we have collaborated as a whole staff on finding out what works and we evaluate our practice regularly against what we know works. Our team will share our approaches with other schools as a beacon of excellent practice.
By 2027 Haslam Park will be well known as a school where we have the very best training programme for our staff, where every single colleague engages with a high quality development programme mapped out for them the moment they begin working at our school. Colleagues from other establishments will visit us to take inspiration from our approaches.
By 2027 Haslam Park will be a school we have the unqualified, universal support of our parents, where parents have the highest aspirations for their children and themselves and where they work with us, in educating their children and themselves. All of our parents will recommend our school to their friends and family members.
By 2027 our OFSTED report will evidence that Haslam Park is an outstanding school where we have a broad, challenging, inclusive curriculum, one which is built upon the foundations of reading, writing and maths, and is shaped according to what our students need to know, understand and do in order to succeed for the rest of their lives.
By 2027 Haslam Park will be a school where our Year Six children consistently leave us with a strong understanding of their own identity, how to demonstrate ethical conduct, how to consider others and themselves exceptionally well. They will be equipped emotionally to contribute positively to society.
By 2027 our end of key stage data will show that Haslam Park is a school where children make exceptional progress in their learning, way beyond what even they themselves think they are capable of making, where we can be as sure as we ever can be that every child , especially those with SEND, move to secondary school with a set of attainment and progress results of which they can be proud.
By 2027 Haslam Park will be a school where we are able to consistently demonstrate that we cherish wellbeing, where every single one of us is wholly committed to working hard, but has time to enjoy life beyond Haslam Park School, with family and friends, so that the school/home balance is in true harmony and we embody a celebratory, sustainable approach to life.
By 2027 Haslam Park will be well known as a school where we have a highly functioning family support system, one where our family support and academic systems operate seamlessly together as one to ensure that every child at Haslam Park has a champion and every single member of our community is safe.
By 2027 retention levels will evidence that Haslam Park is a school where the most exceptional teachers and support staff come to work and stay because they experience learning opportunities at every turn. Children and their families from all around want to come and learn here – because they know they will thrive
