The staff INSET training for teaching and non-teaching staff held between Monday 5th and 7th September, 2011.  The theme for the training and indeed for the first term was 'LIFT UP THE STANDARD'.  The key verse used was taken from Isaiah 62:10 "Go through, go through the gates, prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people".  This was used to motivate and challenge the whole school community towards improving standards of work in all departments.
