End of term 1 report: January 2026
Background:
In August 2025, Teaching and Learning Targets were set for Term 1 2025–2026 on our return to school. These targets were guided by feedback received from all stakeholders in May 2025 through surveys of all stakeholders, staff & student focus groups, and staff discussion. Post December 2025 House-Exams, surveys were sent to all stakeholders (parents, students and teachers). This feedback alongside ‘focus group’ feedback (Student Council, Parent-Teacher meetings, staff meetings such as Year Head Meetings and Senior Management meetings) will guide future targets.
As part of School Self-Evaluation on Teaching and Learning, all stakeholders are asked to give feedback through surveys sent in December-January. Teachers set Teaching and Learning goals in August 2025 & review these goals and feedback throughout the year.
