Our Curriculum Leaders

All subjects at Russell Lower School have a subject leader, who fosters and develops passion, skills and knowledge in their subject.

The roles and responsibilities of the Subject Leaders are:

to take the lead in policy development and the production of
schemes of work designed to ensure progression and continuity
in their subject(s) throughout the school.
to support colleagues in developing work plans and in the
implementation of schemes of work.
to advise on assessment and record keeping for their subject(s).
to monitor progress in their subject(s) and advise the headteacher
of any action that needs to be taken.
to take responsibility for purchasing and organising resources for
their subject area(s).
to work within an agreed budget.
to make time to observe colleagues in both this school and in other
schools and for colleagues to observe them, if we are to achieve
consistency of practice.
to keep up to date by attending the relevant courses and reading
appropriate documents and books.
to liaise each term with Maulden Lower, The Firs Lower
and Alameda Middle.
