Business Plan2015 - 2018

V2 BOC Jan 2015

This section introduces the region and outlines ERW’s vision for improvement. It shares the regional mission statement and explains how it will enhance and develop the National Model of School Improvement.

ERW

ERW is a single integrated regional professional school effectiveness service driving school improvement and learner achievement across the combined area of six local authorities in the South West and Mid Wales region within three hubs:-•

•

•

Carmarthenshire/

Pembrokeshire

Ceredigion/Powys

Neath Port Talbot/SwanseaThis model of regional strategy delivered through the three hubs has been trialled and developed to ensure effective delivery across the large geographical area, the full diverse range of schools that mirrors the Welsh scenario and the bilingual nature of the region.

VISION

ERW’s vision is for a consistently high performing school network across the region with every school a good school offering high standards of teaching under good leadership resulting in all learners achieving their maximum potential. In order to achieve this vision, we will build school capacity through support, challenge and intervention to become self improving, resilient organisations which continually improve outcomes for learners.
