Summary
John Ruskin’s ‘Learning Model’ has been a key driver in the swift improvements achieved since their inspection March 2010. Previously judged inadequate overall and in a number of key areas, the newly appointed Vice Principal took a pro-active approach and developed their own model for learning with support from LSIS Advisers. The model takes a unique approach which is designed to empower and motivate staff and students to transform learning. Re-inspection May 2011 highlighted the impact of this initiative and the dynamic approach of the leadership team when grades dramatically improved to ‘satisfactory’ and ‘good’.
