Piasau Post - Issue 107
28th February 2007
Dear Parents,
We are pleased to present Inspector’s Report following the school’s
review that took place earlier this month.
The overview statement that; “ ..children at
Piasau School achieve high standards in their learning and make very
good progress. The school
provides a very good educational environment and the quality of learning and
teaching is
high...”
makes very positive reading.
As
professionals at the school and parents of children in the school, we can
be delighted that the
education of the children is of such a high standard. Wee
Yiaw-Hin has congratulated the school on
its ‘great achievement’.
We are all aware of the
importance of schooling for expatriate families – our future target is
to build on the
very good work we already do.
The ten page offical parents’ summary you receive
is taken from a
fourteen page confidential document prepared soley for
the school management; however, as part of the school’s
open-door
policy, you are invited to have a look at the full report at any time. The
report is only available in John’s office.
As part of the review process the school was also
assessed on whether it could be accredited with the title of
‘Learning Focussed School’ – a quality assurance procedure
instigated by Shell. The schools that are involved in this
process are rated as being Beginner, Developer or at Mastery levels.
We are delighted to inform you that Piasau school was
deemed to be working at the Mastery level.
We are the first school EVER to be awarded this top
grade.
