The core business at Cannock Chase High School is putting the best teachers in front of our students to ensure the best academic standards. We are passionate about teaching and learning and believe that subject expertise and high expectations are at the heart of effective practice.
Key elements of our teaching strategy include:
- Highly personalised training programmes based on the very best research to ensure teaching practice is evidence-informed, reflective and effective.
- Offering a curriculum that is broad, balanced and fully inclusive, with a wide range of appropriate and challenging courses to suit the needs of our students.
- Ensuring students are knowledge-rich by continually revisiting ideas so that learning is long-term; Fostering confident, independent learners by providing regular opportunities for students to deliberately practise in lessons.
- Providing effective assessment feedback where students have the opportunity to respond to and engage with the feedback to improve their work.
Cannock Chase High School operates a strong and effective pastoral system based upon traditional values of respect, manners and good behaviour. The Pastoral Team is there to support students to ensure every student feels valued and supported, academically achieves and holistically grows and develops.
