Blaise High School
Blaise High School is on a journey of rapid improvement to becoming one of the very best schools in the entire country for progress made. The staff at the school share a common purpose; that is the eradication of educational disadvantage in North Bristol. The staff at the school are committed to the school’s values of Aspiration, Integrity and Pride. The school’s leadership are not only committed to developing a school grounded in academic success, and the development of character, but also want to build a school in which workload for teachers is sensible, manageable and well thought out. In our most recent staff survey 96% of staff said that they were proud to work at the school and planned to be here in two years time. Blaise High School serves a diverse, and vibrant community, with high levels of deprivation. It has a Resource Base within the school and this is something we are very proud of. At Blaise High School we teach in a completely disruption free environment. We believe in evidence led approaches to teaching, and we teach in a traditional manner built around explicit and direct instruction. We firmly believe that teachers are the experts in the room, and teach from a high quality, knowledge - rich curriculum. For us, knowledge - rich does not mean knowledge heavy. We carefully select what we teach our children as we know that this is the most important decision we can make in a school. All of the knowledge that we teach children enables them to climb their own personal mountains to the very best universities in the country, or careers of their choosing.
How do we reduce workload for teachers?
- High quality centralised curriculum resources.
- Live marking in lessons rather than work taken home
- Centralised behaviour systems
- Visible and supportive SLT
- No after school meetings
- Carefully planned deadlines
- Free lunch for every duty.
These are only some of the things that we have introduced to allow teachers to focus on the main thing, teaching great lessons to our children.
