Support
School to School
At Valentines we are experienced in offering support to others. In the past, we have provided school to school support as a Leading Edge school and as a Teaching school. As part of our Teaching school status we are happy to discuss personalised support to meet your requirements. We have worked with both the secondary and primary sectors in a number of areas, such as raising achievement at GCSE, teaching and learning, AFL, coaching, Behaviour for Learning, use of data/tracking, developing an outstanding Sixth Form, vertical tutoring and EAL. If you would us like to work with you, we will be pleased to discuss opportunities for support and arrange appropriate visits and training, on a short or longer term basis.
