Safe - Happy - Learning

Educational Principles

The following principles, laid out by The Pioneer Academy are tried and tested in all of its schools and have been recognised as being highly successful by Ofsted.  These principles underpin The Pioneer Trust Mantra which promotes success for children and guarantees improved outcomes.

·         Promoting and achieving excellence - to inspire children and adults to achieve the extraordinary in dynamic learning environments that foster the development of independent learning.  Working in partnership across The Pioneer Academy to provide innovative opportunities for staff and children to raise aspirations

·         Recognising the importance of outstanding teaching and learning - to develop leaders of learning, create the reality and sustain high quality educational experiences and raise the self- esteem of all children enabling them to contribute positively to society

·         Actively encouraging creativity and innovation - giving opportunities for risk taking and the exploration of new knowledge and concepts to grow a ‘can do’ and ‘no excuses’ learning culture
