We are committed to
Wonder School Improvement

Our responsibility is to provide an environment where practitioners can collaborate, learn from each other, reflect, and engage with best practice.

We believe that education is our greatest liberator.

This core value places pupils at the heart of all we do. At the Institute of Education, we work collaboratively to empower colleagues to enrich pupils’ educational experiences so that they may thrive in an ever-changing world.

Dynamic teaching, wider curriculum opportunities and an inclusive ethos result in a transformative educational experience for the pupils attending Wonder schools.

High-quality teaching and learning is a central tenet of our core values. Through effective pedagogical approaches, we believe that every child can reach their potential.

In collaboration with teachers, we have created an instructional framework that ensures every child experience teaching based on evidence-informed best practice. We are driven by a collective vision of exemplary instruction.

We know that children at different ages and stages require different approaches. The framework we created does not specify how to teach; it can be applied to play-based provision, child-initiated learning, collaborative learning and teacher-led instruction.

Using a framework also means that we can offer effective professional development to all teachers in our Trust and know that all children in our care receive a consistent, ambitious education that is rooted in best practice.
