Quality of Education. School buildings, school grounds and support facilities are an important part of providing quality education to our children. • The adequacy and availability of school buildings and school grounds are determined by the Florida Constitution, the Florida Department of Education’s rules and regulations, the comprehensive plans and applicable development regulations of the County and Cities, the School Board’s policies, budget and capital Five Year Program of Work, and the standards and processes contained in this Agreement.

Land use and public school facility planning should be coordinated and based on consistent population, enrollment, Capital Outlay Full Time Equivalent (COFTE), independent forecasts and development trend data. • The number of students assigned to classes shall comply with the requirements of the class size constitutional amendment of 2002. • Relocatables should be eliminated as permanent class rooms pursuant to 1013.21(1)(a), Florida Statues. • New schools and the provision of additional school capacity should be coordinated with land development, so additional school capacity is in place prior to, or concurrent with, additional student enrollment. • New schools should be located to take advantage of existing and planned infrastructure including roads, water, sewer and parks.

Infill sites shall be sought for new schools in an effort to minimize urban sprawl and maximize the utilization of existing infrastructure. • Land use decisions and school facility planning should seek to: - Ensure compatibility between schools and surrounding land uses; - Minimize transportation costs; - Limit maximum student travel times; - Effect desegregation plans; and - Achieve socioeconomic, racial and cultural diversity objectives. • The provision of school sites and facilities should be considered in the master planning of communities and...

Quality of Education. Our curriculum is broad, balanced and increasingly challenging. Each key stage is a foundation for the next as well as an opportunity to enhance cultural capital and develop key skills and knowledge. A two-year Key Stage 4 has been adopted, to allow more time in Key Stage 3 for the development of key skills and knowledge necessary for success in Key Stage 4, as well as promoting a greater breath of study. Curriculum provision is particularly well developed and challenging in History, English and MFL. However, the quality of education in mathematics, technologies, science is still emerging and in EA6 needs to improve and is where we must ensure teachers have a deeper knowledge of the courses they teach so can plan student learning well. We need to ensure students can quickly gain the skills and knowledge they need to be successful. Expectations of learning are high. ‘Staff expect the best from all students and are ambitious for them. Students know this and most enjoy learning’ (Ofsted, October 2019). Students behave well in lessons, and in the majority of lessons they are well focused. ‘Overall behaviour is good at Ebbsfleet Academy’ (Pivotal Education, June 2021). Non- negotiables are well embedded so that learning time can be used to a maximum, and ‘some adults are relentless in their pursuit to provide a safe, nurturing atmosphere for their learners’ (Pivotal Education, June 2021). 97% staff surveyed in July 2019 agreed that the school has a culture that encourages creativity and orderly conduct. ‘Students take pride in their work and their school. In lessons, they listen to each other and usually work hard’ (Ofsted, October 2019). Students receive weekly home learning via the Google Classroom platform. The tasks have been designed to encourage deeper thinking. We now need to ensure that these tasks are personalised, that there is a high rate of student completion, and that students receive regular feedback on this. Learning and teaching is consistently good with some excellent teaching within English, History, RE, Food, PE and Spanish. Teachers are aware of the needs of individual students in their class. MINT is effectively used to highlight strategies for individual students, but more needs to be done to ensure that strategies are implemented for a personalised learning approach. In light of the recent school closure, all teachers will need to do more to remove the barriers to learning that PP and SEND students face. All teachers engage with the CPG a...
