Go out fast
Run hard in the middle
Kick like he!! at the end.
Seriously though, without knowing any more about your background as a runner its tough to come up with an ideal plan.
Look to some of the training that some of the better 1500m runners of late did and try to replicate it to your ability. Mostly likely this would incorporate with a periodization approach with base at the beginning and race readiness at the end. I'd bet that you'd do many intervals from 1000m down to 300m run at or below your targeted pace time.
Good luck

Well to start off i am the State Champion track runner for my state in the 1600m , 800m, and 3200m. My mile time is between 4:30-4:40. What i do to train is eat healthy first of all. Plenty of pasta's and carbohydrates. When i prepare for a race i control my breathing. In through nose and out mouth. It helps to think of a rythem in your head also or repeat a word. Mostly i set the pace ,but if your not fast enough then draft or stay one leg behind your opponent. This creates better breathing. Also, even though i am a guy i stare at the back of the leg's of the runner ahead of me. Most important is heart. The last 400m sprint as hard as you can!
