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
