We are a Rights Respecting School and therefore we
uphold the principles of the UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child
Article 28 Children have the right to a good quality education.
Article 29 Education should help children to use and develop their talents and abilities. It should also help them to learn to live peacefully, protect the environment and respect other people.
Article 31 Children have the right to play and rest.
Our Aims:
We will cultivate an environment where children are happy and secure and enjoy learning,by:
- ensuring that everyone is treated with respect as an individual whose opinions and beliefs are valued;
- creating exciting, high quality learning environments indoors, outdoors, and in the wider community;
- involving parents/carers and children in decisions about the child’s learning.
provide a broad, balanced and rich curriculum,by:
- continuously striving for high standards of achievement
- through engaging, child-centred teaching;
- ensuring a wealth of meaningful learning experiences
- that meet the needs of each child.
inspire and challenge each child to achieve their full potential and in so doing lay the foundations for life-long learning,by:
- developing our children’s confidence and self-esteem;
- ensuring that our children are active, independent learners
- encouraging our children to begin to take responsibility for themselves, their learning and their behaviour, therefore preparing them for life in a changing world.
