Purbrook Infant School, as a community, is committed to developing the learning of all children and adults. Everyone in our school is encouraged to develop academically, spiritually, morally, socially, culturally and physically. Purbrook Infant School aims to provide a safe learning environment in which everyone is given the opportunity to reach their full potential.
The school values every member of the community as an individual and recognises the vital role that it plays in developing citizens who will play an active role in society. The school vision statement clearly outlines our aims to develop all children and adults, ensuring confidence and creating a secure, stimulating and happy environment in which everyone can learn.
Personal Development Learning at Purbrook Infant School aims to provide pupils with time to explore sensitive and controversial issues, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to understanding and manage difficult situations.
We will teach pupils to recognise and manage risk, make safe choices and recognise when pressure from others threatens their personal safety and wellbeing. Pupils will develop effective ways of resisting pressure and know how to get help. Pupils will be encouraged to develop positive character traits including confidence, resilience, determination and self-esteem.
