School Improvement
At St Andrew’s Major, we are always striving to provide the best possible education for our pupils. Our School Improvement Plan sets out the areas we are focusing on to make the school even stronger and ensure every child can Respect, Believe and Achieve.
School improvement is about looking closely at how we teach and support pupils, identifying what is working well, and planning changes to help us do even better. It is a way to make sure that we continue to improve standards, wellbeing, and opportunities for all children.
We work in partnership with Welsh Government, local authority advisors, CSC, and Llandaff Diocese, and take every opportunity to learn from others and develop our staff.
Our improvement plan is a live document and subject to change following evaluation.
