We recently welcomed some new headteachers to Moortown Primary. Their visit to school was one of a series of support sessions organised by Noctua Teaching School, of which we are a lead partner.
Here are some comments we received following the visit:
Thank you ever so much for taking time out to meet with us… It was very much appreciated. From my point of view, it was a great opportunity to remind me of everything I am working towards in my own setting – a focus on quality first teaching and consistency throughout school…
Thank you for the time you gave us… not only was it great to talk through [various aspects of school leadership], but also having the opportunity to walk around your school was a bonus. I was most impressed by the attitudes of the children towards their learning, and the consistent approach you have to non-negotiables across the year groups. This is something that I’m trying to embed at [my new school], and seeing the impact it has at Moortown has renewed my energies.
