Woodland Grange Primary School Basic Skills Quality Mark

We have got the Basic Skills Agency's Quality Mark!

Basic skills are reading and writing (literacy) and using numbers (numeracy).

We were awarded the Quality Mark in 2002 because:

  • We have a strategy and an action plan to improve children's reading, writing and numberwork.
  • We assess children to find out if they need extra help.
  • We have a target for improving basic skills in the school.
  • We have plans to help children improve their reading, writing and numberwork.
  • We review the progress made by all of the children.
  • We provide training for staff so that they can teach better.
  • We use different ways of teaching based on what each child needs.
  • We have good books and other material to help children improve.
  • We encourage parents to help their children with reading, writing and number work.
  • We monitor whether we are becoming better at teaching basic skills.
