Parklands : A school built on love Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The pupils at Parklands Primary School, located on the Seacroft estate in Leeds, often face significant hardship.

The housing on the estate is often overcrowded and grinding poverty is everywhere, bringing with it all the social ills which this creates.

Children start the school significantly behind their peers nationally, especially with their speech and language.

Yet the school is famed for outstanding learning both in terms of Ofsted judgement and, more importantly, in achieving stratospheric outcomes for its learners.So what's driving these outcomes?In this inspiring book, head teacher Chris Dyson shares his story of how he has steered the school towards the seemingly impossible educational dream of high achievement, personalised support and complete inclusion.

He explains how the school setting can be a place where there is love but also hope and relentless ambition for children, and reflects on the steps that he and his staff have put in place to make this a reality for Parklands' pupils.Chris delves into how this culture and climate of love drives behaviour and decision-making throughout the school and, as a result, how this nurtures the relationships which underpin everything that happens at Parklands.Suitable for teachers and school leaders.
