Our Partnerships

Here at Rachel McMillan we believe that working collaboratively with other schools and organisations enhances and supports the quality of work that we can do to benefit our children.

We have enjoyed collaborative projects with organisations such as The Albany, Deptford as well as collaborating on a formal basis with the following organisations;

Greenwich Community Schools Partnership (GCSP)

Rachel McMillan Nursery School works collaboratively as a Community Interest Company with several other schools within the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

GCSP is a collaboration of diverse schools which include Nursery, Primary, Secondary, a Sixth Form college and Special Schools. The aim and shared values of our schools is to support one and other and all of our families to enable children to thrive and be successful learners. We support each other as established schools to drive school improvement, to develop innovative approaches to education and via the S.B.M network to negotiate contracts and agreements that offer best value. For example, our catering contract.

We achieve this by,

• Curriculum focus and development through the Greenwich P.T.I hub
• Early Years Action Research Project work.
• Peer to Peer Reviews 
• A collaborative S.B.M meeting network 

Our focus, projects and progress are regularly reviewed in our termly meetings.

We have agreed that we will:

• Share expertise
• Develop an exceptionally strong common workforce in our schools
• Provide model community schooling in the Royal Borough of Greenwich.
• Act as a force multiplier so we may achieve more together than apart. Our first piece of work was to compare and contrast our work with Pupil Premium money.
• Our latest project is to build on the strength of our Peer to Peer review work.

Greenwich West Children’s Centres (GWCC)

We work closely with the team in our local children’s centre’s in order to support and meet the needs of all of our families. This includes, signposting and advertising the Children's Centre's services and activities for families.

A member of the RMNS Leadership team attends the 6 weekly Early Help Group meetings.
