Our school as a Learning Organisation / Ein hysgol fel Sefydliad sy'n Dysgu

The SLO model for Wales focuses the efforts of school leaders, teachers, support staff, parents, (local) policy makers and all others involved into realising seven dimensions in its schools. These seven action-oriented dimensions and their underlying elements highlight both what a school should aspire to and the processes it goes through as it transforms itself into a learning organisation.

The realisation of the “four purposes” of the new school curriculum is placed at the heart of the model. These refer to developing children and young people into “ambitious capable and lifelong learners, enterprising and creative, informed citizens and healthy and confident individuals”.

At Blackwood Primary School we complete the SLO survey every year to support our Professional learning Journey. Survey results will highlight key strengths, areas for development and ways of working to enable all staff to develop professionally.
