Chaulden Junior School

To provide enough time for Teachers to prepare and deliver high quality lessons.
To develop the role of Teaching Partners in our school, giving them the recognition they deserve.
To make a realistic difference to work/life balance... not just in words!

We have spent NOTHING on supply in eighteen months (apart from supply funded through our insurance).
Staff sickness has been significantly reduced.
Parents are in full support of the initiative, not one complaint in a year.
Governors see the benefits of not having 'unknown' supply staff in school, until it is absolutely necessary.
Children show a deeper respect for Teaching Partners, they are not seen as being just 'helpers'.
All staff continue to support the initiative. The benefits outweigh any weakness.

All lesson plans and timetables are prepared electronically and stored in a central common area making them accessible and easily updatable.
Teachers electronically highlight the units they have completed; this provides an immediate overview of what has been carried out.
Laptops with wireless cards give teachers flexibility by providing them with the mobility to 'roam' from one classroom to another.
The ability to store contact addresses, calendars, the school diary etc electronically using Microsoft Exchange and Outlook, enabling us to improve the coordination of staff, SMT and resources.
Effective communication both internally and externally via email to Governors, stakeholders etc.
Senior staff have started to use iPAQs, which allow them to be contacted and kept up to date whilst mobile around and outside the school.
All Teaching Partners are trained in ICT to the same level as teachers and can therefore stand-in when required for lessons within the suite.
ICT has helped by reducing bureaucracy and producing a virtually 'paper free' environment resulting in teachers becoming more effective when preparing and delivering their lessons. Leaving more time to focus on their pupils' requirements.
