We want ‘the best possible start’ for Windmill children…
…so what will that look like by the time children leave Windmill?
We think that the combination of:
will help Windmill children GROW into citizens, ready to be successful in life.
Citizens that are:
Generous, Resilient, Optimistic and Wise…
Generous, because:
- They respect themselves and others
- They forgive themselves and others
- They enjoy helping others
Resilient, because:
- They believe in themselves
- They persevere and work hard
- They know their own progress journey
Optimistic, because:
- They are not limited by doubt
- They are solution-focused
- They look to positive role models
Wise, because:
- They have a good knowledge of the world around them
- They interact well with others
- They have sufficient literacy skills
We have a strategy to achieve our vision:
From 2023 until 2027, we are working with a strategic plan that will improve our school, giving Windmill children exactly what they need to be successful in life. The plan has five strands:
- Metacognition (children understanding their learning journey) ‘We learn well’
- Interaction (all of us speaking, listening and communicating effectively) ‘We speak well’
- Writing (using extensive vocabulary, correct grammar and punctuation) ‘We write well’
- Collaboration (partnering with others to improve what we do) ‘We work together’
- Aspiration (bringing the best out in each other and aiming high) ‘We are inspired’
