Cps 5 Year Strategic Plan May 2020 Public

Inspiring and cultivating a lifelong love of learning at Chorleywood Primary School
through our Five-Year Strategic Plan
The future is determined by those who get involved
Introduction
Chorleywood Primary School is an Outstanding school. Our ambition is to ensure that we offer every child
the opportunity to fulfil their potential and to be happy and successful. This plan outlines our strategic
approach to doing this.
The purpose of this strategic plan is to provide an overarching framework, to guide the direction of
continued school improvement, to guide investment (into the physical fabric of the school, resources and
technology of the school and the human capital) and to underpin the detailed operational plans for the
school’s future. This framework has six operational plans that sit underneath it that flesh out how
operational management will deliver on this framework; these include:
1. A strategic curriculum plan
2. A long term human capital plan
3. A long term governance action plan
4. A long term information technology investment plan
5. A long term premises investment repairs and maintenance plan
6. A long term financial plan which will also include alternative income stream strategic planning
7. A communications and partnerships plan
8. An overall wellbeing plan
This plan was produced in consultation with staff, governors, pupils, parents and members of the local
community. In a series of workshops, they identified priorities and areas of focus as well as activities to
support reaching our nine key areas. These suggested activities are collated into one document (available on
request).
