At Sweyne Park we are committed to engaging everyone in high-level thinking to secure pupil progress, both for exam success and also into the future. We prepare lessons and activities which give pupils the opportunity to grapple with deep questions and complex concepts and really get everyone thinking. We want all members of the school community to be inspired by the human brain and its incredible potential! |
|
Engaging the whole school community in our work as a Thinking School is incredibly exciting and rewarding. Pupils, parents, support staff, teachers and governors have all had the opportunity to be part of our journey and we have ambitious plans for the future. |
