Windsor Clive Primary School

The school recognises that from time to time employees may have problems, concerns or complaints (i.e. grievances) about aspects of their employment, e.g. working conditions or working relationships with colleagues, etc, which they wish to raise and have resolved. It also recognises that it has a responsibility to deal with any such grievances raised in a timely fashion to maintain discipline, good order, motivation and morale amongst its employees in the interests of service delivery.

In this respect, therefore, the school’s Policy is to encourage free communication between employees and their respective managers to ensure that questions and/or problems arising during the course of employment can be aired and, wherever possible, resolved quickly and informally to the satisfaction of all parties. Every effort should be made, both by the employee and the school, to resolve any problems on an informal basis. To that end the school’s formal Grievance Policy and Procedure should be followed in respect of grievances that, for whatever reason, cannot be resolved informally.

At Windsor Clive Primary School, we define the Curriculum as all of the learning activities planned by the school in order to promote learning, personal growth and development. It does not only include the formal, statutory requirements of Curriculum 2008 and Foundation phrase, but it also embraces the range of extra-curricular activities that we organise in order to enrich the experience of all of our children. It also includes the ‘hidden curriculum’, or what the children learn from the way that they are treated and expected to behave. We aim to develop the whole child through the implementation of a broad and balanced curriculum which is differentiated to allow and encourage all children to develop his/her full potential. It is ensuring that all children have the opportunity to be successful and to use that success to sustain a motivation to learn throughout their lives.
