If anything can bind together nearly 400 pupils and 100 school
staff in challenging circumstances, it's love. And love is in
plentiful supply at Parklands.The pupils at Parklands Primary
School, located on the Seacroft estate in Leeds, often face
significant hardship. Children start at the school significantly
behind their peers nationally, especially in terms of their
language and literacy. Yet the school is famed for outstanding
learning - both in terms of Ofsted judgement and, more importantly,
in achieving amazing outcomes for its learners.In this inspiring
book, head teacher Chris Dyson shares the 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
creates a safe, loving environment in which all of its learners can
thrive. Chris also provides insights into how the leadership team
goes about raising funds for the school, and how they choose to
spend it on both curricular and extracurricular projects. And,
furthermore, how the school broadens its pupils' experiences and
cultural capital by means of residential trips, in-school
productions, and sports and arts provision.An uplifting read for
all teachers and school leaders.
