The 6 pillars

We have created a bespoke system of evaluation based on 6 key Success skills identified by teachers as being fundamental to success and achievement in school.

Attitude to learning

An excellent attitude to learning features a commitment to self-improvement. Students focus on improving their own learning ability rather than simply completing a task or project – it’s about constantly striving to improve and learn as much as they possibly can, recognising that not all children have access to the privilege of education.

Resilience

A persistence to keep going and keep trying despite setbacks and failure. The ability to bounce back from mistakes or negative experiences, learn from them and move onwards and upwards to even greater success.

Leadership

Effective leadership is defined as actions being taken for the good of the whole community rather than for the minority or worse, for themselves. An effective leader listens carefully to individuals and identifies the strengths and strategies that can be used to benefit the group as a whole.

Communication

The ability to listen carefully to and discuss a range of ideas and issues in a clear and considered way, using an effective and varied vocabulary and showing respect for others’ viewpoints.

Problem-solving

This is all about flexible thinking: it also encompasses the ability to apply relevant, acquired knowledge and skills to solve current problems independently.

Growth mindset

This really is the lynch pin that binds all our core skills together and works on the fundamental belief that with practice and determination you can learn and be better in the next second than you were in the last. Students who have mastered this key skill, understand that mistakes are simply learning and that they can always succeed and develop new skills simply by believing they can.

Impact on behaviour

Yellow cards 2018/19

This rapid decline in the number of behaviour warnings being issued is a clear indicator that the general behaviour in School A improved over the course of the year that Success Club was working with this cohort.

Red cards 2018/19

This significant drop in numbers after the Autumn term indicates that serious behavior incidents decrease very quickly after the first term, when Success Club started working with the students, and sustain a low level for the remainder of the year.
