Success For All<br />
Superb teaching and learning<br />
e <strong>Clarendon</strong> <strong>College</strong> / <strong>Aspire</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>Excellence</strong><br />
Our core purpose is ensuring maximum<br />
success for every student. We set stretching<br />
targets for all students; from the moment<br />
we speak <strong>to</strong> their Year 6 teacher we are<br />
planning their route <strong>to</strong> success. Targets are<br />
reviewed regularly and parents kept well<br />
informed. In the core subjects we use<br />
setting <strong>to</strong> ensure maximum progression<br />
for every child.<br />
All teachers are challenged <strong>to</strong> be<br />
‘outstanding’ and lessons are rigorously<br />
reviewed. We believe that the modern<br />
classroom should be an inspiring blend of<br />
contemporary technology and the eternal<br />
art of good teaching.<br />
“<strong>Clarendon</strong> <strong>College</strong> is such a<br />
friendly place <strong>to</strong> study. I’ve made<br />
loads of friends and the teachers<br />
give you so much support.”<br />
