Our Aims
Our aims underpin our vision and values and focus on the three communities that we sit within and value as important to the work we do as a school. They also are represented in the three colours of our school logo. This also represents the trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) and inclusivity and tolerance in the form of three characters holding hands. We believe that by following our school values and collaborating within our three communities we achieve our vision – providing the highest quality education for all, in partnership with parents and achieving excellence with the help of God who strengthens us.
We aim to:
Be a learning community where:
- Each child is significant; noticed, valued, respected and cherished.
- Children are safe, kind, enthusiastic, happy, engaged, courteous, and interdependent.
- As a result of outstanding, motivating and inspirational staff and teaching, each child makes sustained progress from their own starting points.
- The teaching of reading, writing, communication and mathematics is exceptional and each child makes excellent progress.
- Teachers plan challenging and enjoyable tasks based on accurate assessment of pupils’ prior skills, knowledge and understanding – supported by an outstanding, creative curriculum.
- Learning across the entire curriculum is highly valued and each subject and area of learning is treated as significant.
Be a Christian community where:
- Christian values are at the heart of school life. Honesty and forgiveness underpin all we do.
- There is a strong link with the local Church and the wider Christian community.
- Spiritual development, as well as cultural, moral and social development, are integral to the learning experience in the school.
- All children and families - those of the Christian faith, those from other faith backgrounds, and those with no faith background - may understand more about our Christian values and faith whilst being free to make their own choices.
Be a local community where:
- The school is at the heart of the wider community, served by that community, and serving that community.
- The school is fully inclusive, welcoming all sections of the wider community, including those families who do not have a natural connection to the school, so that all will view the school as an active and open part of the wider community.
- We share our school and form effective partnerships with other community organisations which have a positive impact on the life of the school.
- Everyone is a learner – providing opportunities for life-long learning
