OUR MISSION STATEMENT
"Learning through Success"
WHAT ARE THE AIMS OF THE SCHOOL ?
Our main aim is to provide quality experiences in all aspects of school life so enabling the children to be happy, successful and keen to learn, thus helping them to grow into young people who are fulfilled and able to make a positive contribution to society.
"They come this way only once so we
should litter their pathways with quality
experiences"
We aim to do this in the context of a warm and welcoming respectful ethos so that warmth will be evident to all who come within our walls and so that our children will develop strong, moral values.
We believe that children should be encouraged to develop a happy way of being together, that their self-respect leads to a respect for the rights and needs of other children and adults from their own culture and other cultures and for the opposite gender.
We are aiming to educate the whole child by presenting a total experience, which is right and relevant to his/her individuality, thus fostering the child's intellectual, physical, cultural, moral and spiritual development.
We aim to teach a broad and balanced curriculum by carefully planning and delivering the National Curriculum followed by an assessment of the children's progress; we also provide time for reflection and evaluation by the teaching staff.
We recognise that change and progress are an important part of everyday life and therefore, aim to equip children to cope and flourish in dealing with the challenges faced by such changes.
