As part of our values we will ensure all our children have the skills and knowledge to thrive in a modern world. We will achieve this through our: Our aspirational outcomes are our ethos. In 2009, the Cambridge Primary Review published their report, having conducted the largest independent study of primary education.
They published the following twelve qualities and we have adopted them as our Aspirational Outcomes, as they will be the result of our own Values, the 6Rs for Learning. By attending to both their physical and emotional welfare, help children to embrace life with a strong sense of self and a positive outlook both now and into adulthood.
Enable children to develop the necessary tools to be enterprising, successful and lead rewarding lives. Secure the active, willing and enthusiastic engagement of children in their learning. Have critical independence of thought and be able to see beyond the surface, discriminating in their choice of activities and relationships.
The individual in relation to others and the wider world: Understand the importance of mutual respect and courtesy as the foundation of effective relationships.
