Hello and welcome to Boughton Primary School. Our aim is to provide a happy, caring and stimulating environment in which all children can fulfil their potential; we work hard to promote our school ethos, Excellence through Effort and Enjoyment.
All adults and children are encouraged to demonstrate good behaviour, in line with our behaviour promise: Be Kind, Be Safe, Be Responsible. The children know these as Our Boughton Bs . Values education is at the heart of our school philosophy. We have six core values which we visit throughout the year: responsibility, tolerance, respect, compassion, honesty and courage.
The children are supported to understand what each of these values looks like at school by achieving weekly values awards and adding their names to our Values Tree. We hope that parents and carers will find our website helpful and informative. Everything you need to know about our school can be found via the tabs at the top of the home page.
Key events are always publicised on here, so it is worth checking every so often to make sure that you know what is coming up. I look forward to welcoming you to our school very soon.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
