Grainville School
Grainville was the first organisation in Jersey to be acknowledged as an Investor in People in 1999. True to form we continue to invest in our staff, school governors , students and their parents and continue to proudly hold IIP status. The self-reflection process of IIP and the high quality feedback we receive justify our commitment to this very important ‘people orientated’ standard. Both the local consultant , Jackie Barrett and the external IIP consultant were highly professional and provided us with sound advice and very objective and informative feedback.
As a multi-million pound complex business we need to strategically plan and invest in our staff so that our vision and values are evident in everyday activities and positively impact upon our students and school community. In 2014 Grainville School became the first school to win both the Jersey Enterprise Awards for ‘Not for Profit Organisation of the Year’ and the company that does the most to ‘Develop Skills’. Feedback from IIP supported our nomination and was duly recognised by the judges.
