Introduction:Programme: Creative Partnerships
Organisation: Stanton Bridge Primary School, Coventry -
Article:
"We need to improve literacy, boys' motivation and get parents more involved. We think developing a more engaging curriculum is the means to do this. Our results are well below the national average, particularly with regard to writing; our multi-ethnic catchment area is one of high social deprivation and transcience and 21 languages are spoken across the school." Mrs Islam, Headteacher
A total of nine children in the class made accelerated progress (3 APS) within the term, compared to the average of 4 APS that is expected in a whole academic year.
