Golden Threads
Everything begins with our golden threads. They are woven through all that we do and underpin our shared belief that our role is to support children in aspiring to achieve, understand their place in the world as global citizens and broaden their horizons.
Know
Our children have the skills and knowledge to achieve their full potential. They are successful, make sustained progress and possess a lifelong love of learning. This means that they know more, do more and remember more.
Create
Our creative curriculum is inspiring, engaging and provides opportunities which challenge children to think, question, problem solve, reason and remember. It encourages children to be curious about the world around them and to make connections supporting their metacognition.
Talk
Oracy is at the heart of our language-rich curriculum which results in highly developed communicators. Children are encouraged to discuss and articulate their thoughts through a mastery approach. They are exposed to a wealth of high quality, ambitious and subject-specific vocabulary.
Think
Children are encouraged to be independent, creative thinkers and learners. They are curious and ask questions. This builds resilience, determination and perseverance. They are the best they can be.
Collaborate
We work collaboratively with our parents, the local community and beyond. We build strong partnerships that draw upon expertise and widen horizons. Our ethos of teamwork pervades all that we do.
Respect
We respect each other and our environment. We embrace our differences and celebrate individuality. Our well-rounded, emotionally intelligent, tolerant children have a strong moral compass and clear values which they take with them to secondary school and beyond..
