Ethos and Values
Children and staff follow key themes each half term which focus on six key characteristics which make our school special. These are: being caring, being curious, to contribute, to be confident, to be committed and to be creative.
We aim to:
-
To provide a caring, secure environment in which all members of our school community feel confident and valued.
-
To work together to enable our pupils to become happy, healthy and responsible citizens in a rapidly changing world.
-
To create a challenging learning environment where children have high expectations of their own success.
-
To develop each child’s full potential – intellectually, physically, socially and emotionally.
-
To provide a relevant, responsive and engaging curriculum with opportunities for children to learn in a variety of ways.
-
To develop children’s involvement in their own learning by encouraging confidence, discipline and motivation, and by fostering a love of learning.
-
To develop links with home so that parents and school can work together to the benefit of each child.
-
To enable all children to recognise their own worth and accept responsibility for their own behaviour.
-
To provide equal access to learning opportunities irrespective of gender, ethnic background or ability.
-
We believe that educational success is to be measured in individual terms.
