Our aims for the new school
have been developed after careful analysis
of the five outcomes of Every Child
Matters which we hope to meet as part
of a service for young people.
1. Ensure that all children
have equal access to the opportunities
the school and the wider community
offer regardless of their abilities,
gender, race or religion.
2. Develop a school community
that children enjoy and have pride
in being part of.
3. Provide a broad, balanced
and exciting curriculum which challenges
children's thinking and enables
them to achieve the highest possible
standards.
4. Enable children to take
responsibility for and to have opinions
about their own learning which they
are able to share with others.
5. Support children with
their learning, value their achievements
and opinions and encourage them to
learn from their mistakes.
6. Encourage children to
have high expectations of their potential
and to be self reliant and independent.
7. Enable children to become
aware of and have the chances to
become involved in their local community.
8. Develop good relationships
and respect between home, school,
other professionals and those from
other services and the wider community.
9. Foster good effective
ways of communicating and working
together with parents, governors
and the local community for the benefit
of the children in our care.
10. Help children to acquire
the physical, social and emotional
skills and experiences to develop
and progress safely through life.
11. Provide a safe and stimulating
environment that enables children
to access the curriculum fully.
12. Ensure children develop
the skills and knowledge to achieve
a healthy mind and body.
13. Help children to know
the importance of good behaviour,
what constitutes good behaviour,
and to take responsibility for their
own behaviour.
