1.Personal Details
2.Strategic Goals Update for 2027: The Board are in the process of streamlining the Strategic Goals and Annual Improvement Plan. They have updated the strategic goals and would like to gather whānau input.

1. To continually improve the school’s learning culture, ensuring that ākonga feel safe, secure, engaged and have a strong sense of belonging. This will be evident through ākonga progress and achievement in Reading, Writing and Mathematics; Positive Learning for Behaviour data; and their participation, performance and achievements in the Arts and Sport.

Achievement Outcomes: 80% or more of ākonga who have attended school for three or more years will be achieving at Proficient or above in Reading, Writing and Mathematics.

2. To ‘BUILD’ teacher capability by embedding consistent, schoolwide best practices in Reading, Writing, Mathematics and PB4L strategies. These practices will align with the New Zealand Curriculum and support every ākonga to AIM High and be the best they can be.

Achievement Outcome: Consistent, evidence-informed teaching practices are embedded across the school, underpinned by strong teacher pedagogy and the effective use of assessment data and achievement trends. These practices support and accelerate ākonga progress over time, particularly for ākonga who have attended Stratford Primary School for three or more years.
