PLAN OF AMBERGATE SCHOOL

The School Statement

Ambergate is a small village school where a genuine interest and concern for the individual exist. The school aims to offer a high standard of primary education and a wide range of learning opportunities. Learning to work and play together, sharing and caring for others are important factors in the life of our school. We consider that it is important to build links with the wider community and value the support and involvement of parents in school.

The Aims of the School

Our aim is to provide every child with full access to a broad and balanced curriculum so that each individual can achieve their potential in an atmosphere of collaboration and mutual support and respect.

This means helping children to:

• develop a positive attitude to school and learning in general
• experience encouragement and success to enhance self respect
• develop confidence, interest, initiative and responsibility
• learn to work together with adults and peers to gain the skills, knowledge and attitudes needed in a rapidly changing world
• communicate effectively in a variety of forms
• participate in a wide range of physical, sporting and creative activities which enrich their appreciation of life
• develop tolerance, respect for the views of others and raise awareness of religious and moral values
• acquire an environmental awareness, fostering a caring attitude to the world around us

We aim to provide a high quality environment in which:

• there is a high regard for children's safety
• children have a clear understanding of what is expected of them in terms of work and behaviour
• they are treated as individuals with unique learning needs whose ideas, opinions and work are valued
• the achievement of children's highest possible standards is recognised and celebrated and is reflected in the quality of displays around school
• there is an atmosphere of mutual co-operation, involvement and understanding between the school, parents and the community and everyone's contribution is valued
• a belief in equal opportunity underpins all our work
