8. Context 2013 / 2014 Headteacher left from Tinsley Infant School Headteacher from Tinsley Junior approach by Governors from Tinsley Infants to become Executive Head over both Schools. Tinsley Infants were due an OFSTED inspection and were vulnerable to a category. The new leadership team comprising of Executive Head, Head of School, Executive Business manager and the wider teams embarked on a rapid improvement plan determined to move the school to a good outcome at OFSTED. Achieved a good judgement within 6 months.

9. How was this achieved? Well structured shared training at the beginning of the year to form positive working partnerships between all members of the teams. SLT developed a robust ‘Getting to Good plan’ that was shared with the team and was ambitious for the children. School to school partnership developed which facilitated a rapid introduction and development of tried and tested improvement strategies. -Reciprocal reading -Pie Corbett, Talk for Writing -WAGOLL’s for all written work across the curriculum -Rich curriculum which incorporated hands on experiences -Higher expectations of the quality and quantity of children’s work -Whole school attendance action plan -Development of the Pastoral Team -Clear marking and feedback policy -Clear non negotiables that set out clear expectations for all staff in the school Team teaching strategies were introduced as an effective way of sharing best practise. Leaders provide the team with regular feedback and additional support where needed.

10. Impact Best ever results for Tinsley Infants. Exceeded all National averages for Reading, Writing and Maths for levels 2b+, 2a+ and Level 3. Attendance improved to 94% from 92% and continues to improve with currently 96%, which is above National average. Quality of teaching has moved from requires improvement to all teachers now being good or outstanding.

11. 2014 / 2015 Became one school in September 2014. Working towards the next OFSTED judgement to be outstanding. School is recognised regionally and now nationally as a centre for best practise particularly for children who have EAL or are new to English.
