3. CONCEPT
The School Development Plan (SDP) is a strategic
plan for improvement.
It should bring together, in a clear and simple
way, the school priorities, the main measures it will
take to raise standards, the resources dedicated to
these, and the key outcomes and targets it intends
to achieve.
The ‘Every School a Good School' policy
emphasises that school improvement is first and
foremost the responsibility of the school.

4. It is based on the premise that schools themselves
are best placed to identify areas for improvement and to
implement changes that bring about better outcomes
for pupils.
School improvement is most likely to be sustained
when a school establishes a culture of aspiration and a
commitment to promoting regular and robust self-
evaluation.
Self-evaluation must be an integral part of the school
development planning process with the resulting actions
and targets captured in school development plans
(SDPs).
