Enner Glynn SchoolIntroductionEnner Glynn School is a Co–educational Contributing Primary School that caters for children in Years 1- 6. The school has a roll of over 300 students and is classified as Decile 7.It is situated in the suburb of Enner Glynn, in Stoke, and is 4km from the centre of Nelson. Enner Glynn is a steadily growing community, which has two residential subdivisions continuing to be developed. At present the school has a staff of twelve full time teachers, three part time teachers, six teacher aides, two administration staff, a property manager, a gardener and one part time music teacher.

Grounds and PropertyThe school itself is located within spacious grounds. The children enjoy the use of two large grassed playing fields, a swimming pool, three adventure playgrounds and large court areas that accommodate netball, tennis, mini- ball and a number of other court activities. The

school grounds are attractively landscaped and the buildings are well maintained. There are fourteen well-equipped classrooms with one room that is spare during the first half of the year. This room is used to accommodate a new class created due to roll growth. The school grounds, including the swimming pool in summer, are available for community use.We have undertaken a number of recent property projects to open up our spaces and develop our ‘learning community’ approach in the School. This has included opening many classrooms with wide glass doorways and developing ramps and access around the school to allow the learners to

congregate, share and play. We have a number of other projects to support this which are under development.

Learning SupportWe have a well developed special needs programme which support all of our students who have learning difficulties. The classroom teacher is responsible for the learning of all students in their class, however we have a Special Needs co-ordinator and a number of other support staff who support the teacher and learners. We have developed a number of expert support people for students with a variety of learning needs. A number of outside agencies also support students within the school. These include the Public Health Nurse, Resource Teachers, Learning and Behaviour (RTLB’s), the Dental Therapist, Advisory Services and The Ministry of Education - Special Education (SE).Teachers have high expectations of, and for, their students. The children are presented with challenging and stimulating learning and the positive relationships between teachers and students are a key factor in the delivery of high quality learning programmes.

Professional LearningThe school has recently reviewed and developed our work in assessment practices, we have school wide learning journals which are focussed strongly on formative assessment and help provide a record of some the the child’s learning while they are at Enner Glynn School. Teachers have been involved in extensive programmes of Professional Development to facilitate ongoing improvement in these areas as well as areas of inquiry learning, creativity and thinking. The School is currently the Lead School in the Whakatu School’s ICT-PD Contract and has completed numeracy training with all of its teachers.

e-LearningThe school has a strong commitment to ICT and all rooms are networked with Apple computers. Printing needs are met through the networking of colour and black and white laser printers and our photocopier is also linked to the network. The school also provides laptop computers for

all teachers. Students can use; classroom computers, 13 digital still cameras, 3 digital video cameras, one of 8 data projectors, 2 pods of laptops and we have an automated library system. We are planning to bring more mobile technologies into the classrooms in the coming years.The school also has its own website (www.ennerglynn.school.nz) where, together with other information about the school, our newsletter can be viewed each fortnight. Students manage much of the content on this site.

The ArtsThe School prides itself for its strong Arts and Performance programmes. It has excelled in the Community Mask Parade as part of the Nelson Arts Festival. We have a kapahaka group, two choirs and a school rock band. Both groups have performed admirably at the Nelson Arts Festival.The school is committed to providing its students with opportunities to learn from high quality artists and musicians. In 2010 we appointed a teacher for 3 days a week to deliver specialist performing arts programmes to the classrooms while also allowing the classroom teachers to be released for their Classroom Teacher Release.

GovernanceThe Enner Glynn School Board of Trustees is entrusted to work on behalf of all stakeholders. It has ultimate accountability for the school’s performance. The trustees set the vision for the school. They provide strategic leadership and ensure that legal and policy requirements are

addressed. Enhancing student achievement is the focus of the Enner Glynn School Board of Trustees. The successful governance of the school results from:• Effective systems for reporting, self-review, monitoring and appraisal; • Clearly documented and understood roles and responsibilities of the board and the

Principal; and • Clear board-approved policies that provide direction for the board, Principal and

staff. The board is proactive rather than reactive in its operations and decision making. It does not involve itself in the day to day running of the school.Important board’s stakeholders include the:• Ministry of Education;• Stoke/Nelson community including local Maori and the business community;• Parents and caregivers;

Growing People

Enner Glynn School Strategic Plan 2011-2013, Page 6

Page 7: Charter2011 2013

• Surrounding schools, early childhoold education facilities; and• Nelson City Council.

The board of trustees is composed of five elected parent representatives;A board chairperson and deputy chairperson elected from the five elected parent representatives; The Principal and an elected staff trustee; and from time to time Co-opted or appointed trustees (in particular to provide expert advice where necessary eg. Maori representative). The board has one standing committee – that of the Finance Standing Committee. This committee comprises of the Board Chair (and an elected parent representative); and the Principal and staff trustee.

Our MissionOur School’s Mission is “Growing People”. Through our Vision and Learning Principles we plan to grow all people at our School or who have a connection with our School. For students this is in their holistic learning and growth during their time with us; for the teachers it is seeing ourselves as learners and learning ‘with and from’ others in the School; and for the community it is through the many opportunities for connecting and learning with our students and our staff. This mission is emerging and will continue to grow with us as our ideas and philosophies grow as a group with a common purpose.

Enabling Learning - Annual Aim 1:Student Achievement and Progress TargetProfessional Learning TargetOther Target:

Strategic Aim Ensure students with diverse needs are catered for by effective classroom teaching and specialists where required

Annual Aim Build teacher capability to manage diverse learning needs in the classroom

Baseline Data Currently many of our students are withdrawn from the classroom for learning support. Over time this can lead to a culture of ‘Support staff deal with the learners who struggle’. While that is not the prevailing sentiment at this school we wish to develop our practices to further support inclusion and to re-inforce that it is the teacher who is responsible for the child’s learning. So while a teacher aide may be assigned to support learners, that person could work with the more able learners, while the teacher spends more time with those who are not achieving as highly. After all, why do we have our least qualified staff working with our hardest to reach learners?

Targets •100% of Teachers aware that student with diverse learning needs need to be managed by the classroom teacher

•Change practices to support diverse needs, vary teaching techniques to support all students - not just a few

•Ensure teacher aides are working within the classroom setting to support 80% of learners with special needs

•Teacher aides no longer working with the most needy students

Strategic Aim Develop an Enner Glynn School Curriculum within the direction for teaching and learning as set in the New Zealand Curriculum Framework

Annual Aim To have established a curriculum framework for EGS ready for implementation for 2012

Baseline Data Currently we have no EGS curriculum or strategic approach for implementing the NZC. We have some links to the Key Competencies, but these have not been established school-wide, and we need a consistent approach to ensuring the the Vision, Principles, Values and Learning Areas of the NZC are realised and are actively being integrated and tracked in our School

Targets •We have a curriculum framework in place which supports the NZC and the School vision buy Term 4, 2011.

•Provide opportunities for leadership development in curriculum and building expertise and curriculum leadership in our staff.

Strategic Aim Provide opportunities to learn with a variety of technologies including developing mobile technologies to support learning

Annual Aim Explore the use of mobile classroom technologies and how, with effective eLearning pedagogy, these can improve learning and student achievement

Baseline Data Our students now have greater access to technology for their own use in school. A recent survey of Year 4 students indicated that 22% of them believed that using the computers helped them with their learning, about 16% could identify clearly how it helped their learning. We would like to provide more opportunities for children to learn with technologies and during the process get them to build their understandings about how they learn.

Targets •90% of students have opportunities to use technologies to support their learning at least 6 time per term.

•90% of students feel that this technology is supporting their learning and can identify how it does.

Strategic Aim Use of effective assessment practices to inform accurate reporting of student achievement to Students/staff/parents/community. This will give our data some INTEGRITY.

Annual Aim To use the e-Asttle tool to support Teacher Judgements and improve learning outcomes and communication of student learning needs

Baseline Data Progressive Achievement Tests are currently our sole standardised assessment measure (as opposed to standards references assessments). While they provide some useful data, they do not provide the formative assessment use that e-Asttle provides. We would like to use aspects of e-Asttle to assess students and share some of this assessment data with parents to support our on-going reporting to parents.

Targets •100% of Teachers using e-Asttle to support making OTJs (from Years 1-6)and considering next learning and teaching steps for students, teachers and parents.

•Design and assign appropriate tests for age levels•Use an e-Asttle report in Learning Journals to inform parents of student

progress compared to standardised averages for age and stage•Develop a plan for e-Asttle use in the school

Living with Integrity - Annual Aim 6:Student Achievement and Progress TargetProfessional Learning TargetOther Target: Systems

Strategic Aim Develop effective moderation systems school-wide to give our data INTEGRITY.

Annual Aim To build systems for effective moderation of Overall Teacher Judgements (OTJs)

Baseline Data Currently we have no school wide systems in place for moderation of OTJs to ensure the reliability, validity, consistency and accuracy of OTJs over a period of time. There is no clear process for and effective evidence-based approach to OTJs. Although we do use the New Zealand Curriculum Exemplars, there is a need to implement appropriate systems and processes to ensure our OTJs have integrity.

Targets •Develop a system for the moderation of only ‘difficult to place’ students, which:

- Uses an ‘evidence-based’ approach- Allows for a moderation group to make independent OTJs then share

their findings- Makes the most use of National Standards, Literacy Learning

Progressions, Numeracy Strategy and Curriculum Exemplar resources to support moderation and OTJs

- Allows for moderation across Year Levels/Learning Teams/School- Includes clear recording of decision making, so that placements can be

justified AND to allow us to evaluate whether consistent decisions are being made over time.

- Ensure judgements are made at consistent times during the year with approximate timings at 40, 80, 120 weeks as well as the end of Years 4, 5 and 6

Self ReviewPurposeSelf-review at Enner Glynn School is designed to fulfill two outcomes:1.to inform all stakeholders (Staff, Trustees, Students and Community) on

how effectively we are implementing the School’s Mission, Vision and Principles through its policies, systems, programmes and practice.

2.to identify to all stakeholders (Staff, Trustees, Students and Community) areas where improvement or growth is required

Self Review KEY Question:“...How effectively are we ‘Growing People’?...”

Supporting Questions:• How do we assess the extent to which our people are ‘amazing’?• How do we assess the extent to which our place is ‘inspiring’?• How do we assess the extent to which our learning is ‘active’?• How do we assess the extent to which our future is ‘awesome’?

Self Review ApproachesThis table illustrates different approaches which can be taken to self-review:
