Mountfitchet College
Description
In 2002 Mountfitchet Mathematics and Computing College was a school of concern with a budget deficit and some serious behavioural problems. So what was the key to its improvement and how did it become the most improved school in the country in 2006? Headteacher Jo Mullis attributes the school's success to a relentless focus on learning , and goes on to discuss some of the measures she and her staff used to raise standards and attainment. From developing a host of learning managers to give personalised support to students, to changes in the school time-table; from a leadership mentor to a system of peer observations for staff, the school has focused on a range of ways to do their very best for each student - and they continue to work and improve further.
