Alden, Katie
FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, v60 n1 p45-50 2018
Stanley Park High School, Carshalton, was designated a Building Schools for the Future "One School Pathfinder" in 2006 and charged with being innovative in all aspects of schooling. At a time of increasing compliance in schools, with an unwillingness to deviate from centrally controlled orthodoxy for fear of falling foul of ever-tightening accountability measures, Stanley Park High has striven to establish a curriculum which inspires excellence for all students as well as developing an equitable assessment system which enables students to become equal partners in their own learning.
