BASIC
SKILLS
QUALITY MARK
The Quality Mark is about
basic skills. Reading, writing, spelling and numberwork. The skills all children need. The
Quality Mark says that our school:
has a strategy and an action plan to
improve children's reading, writing and numberwork;
assesses children to find out if they need
extra help;
has a target for improving basic skills in
the school;
makes sure that children have plans to
imrpove their reading, writing and numberwork;
reviews the progress made by all of the
children;
provides training for staff so that they
can teach better;
uses different ways of teaching based on
what each child needs;
has good books and other material to help
children improve;
encourages parents to help their children
with reading, writing and numberwork;
monitors whether they are becoming better
at teaching basic skills.
The Quality Mark is given for 3 years.
Then The Basic Skills Agency renew it if the school still meets the high standard they
require.
