The Pioneer Academy Vision

We put children first, pioneering excellence and championing each and every child. Safe – Happy – Learning

Educational Principles

The following principles, laid out by The Pioneer Academy are tried and tested in all of its schools and have been recognised as being highly successful by Ofsted.  These principles underpin The Pioneer Trust Mantra which promotes success for children and guarantees improved outcomes.

• Promoting and achieving excellence – to inspire children and adults to achieve the extraordinary in dynamic learning environments that foster the development of independent learning.  Working in partnership across The Pioneer Academy to provide innovative opportunities for staff and children to raise aspirations
• Recognising the importance of outstanding teaching and learning – to develop leaders of learning, create the reality and sustain high quality educational experiences and raise the self- esteem of all children enabling them to contribute positively to society
• Actively encouraging creativity and innovation – giving opportunities for risk taking and the exploration of new knowledge and concepts to grow a ‘can do’ and ‘no excuses’ learning culture
• Consistent high standards of behaviour and attendance – role modelled by all staff to shape the ethos and values of the school, support learning and promote achievement
• Equality and diversity – to gain mutual respect through an understanding of the key values of justice and equality
• Safeguarding health, safety and welfare – to protect all children and adults

This will be achieved by:

• Securing outstanding leadership at all levels within the school and across The Trust
• Developing excellent governance and strategic planning, including legal, promotional and financial management
• Appointing and developing highly qualified, excellent Teachers, administrative and learning support staff
• Establishing a regular forum for children and families to discuss views with school leaders and governors, contributing to our journey to excellence
• Learning from the best systems for self-evaluation, review and inspection to monitor and measure progress
• Bringing school staff and partners together to learn from each other, consider innovative practice and inspire future developments

Celebration Assemblies

These enjoyable assemblies are a great way to finish off the week where teachers are able to celebrate the achievements of the children in their classes by handing out certifiates. Here at Hollington, we also use this assembly to celebrate the children’s birthdays, where they each receive a brand new birthday book to call their own.
