Freedom from Failure

“Sometimes when you get so low you can’t go any further something strange happens. You are set free because whatever you do can’t be as bad as the reality you are living. “ Kate Coutts, Headteacher, Uyeasound Primary School, 2005

Not Freedom from Failure

But

Freedom with Accountability.

Freedom

Professional freedom for teachers and schools to tailor learning to the needs of individual young people

The people best placed to make judgements about the learning needs of individual young people are those who work with them most closely.Within a framework of clear national standards and local authority support,teachers and other professionals in schools must have the freedom to exercise their professional judgement to deliver excellent learning and teaching.We will act to give them that freedom.
