School Values

Independence is thinking for ourselves, being self-motivated in our work and taking on responsibility.

Respect is valuing everyone equally, being polite, taking care of our school environment and celebrating our differences.

Teamwork is making sure everyone is listened to and can share their ideas so that we can overcome challenges and succeed together.

Pride is taking care of the way we act and present ourselves so that we can be proud of our work and who we are.

Kindness is caring for other people’s emotions, sharing what we have and making others feel valued and considered.

Resilience is taking on challenges, not giving up when things get difficult and bouncing back after mistakes.

We actively support and promote British Values at Bassingham Primary School. We also actively educate our children to be aware of the potential dangers of extremism and radicalisation.

Vision

At Bassingham Primary School we aim to create a caring, stimulating and happy environment in which each child will experience a broad balanced curriculum, develop positive attitudes and acquire a sense of achievement, self-confidence and self-discipline.

We aim to:

• Raise levels of attainment for all pupils, enabling them to achieve their personal best.
• Develop confident, disciplined and enquiring learners, able to make informed choices.
• Foster a love of learning.
• Foster self-esteem and personal responsibility, linked to respect for the needs and feelings of others.
• Facilitate considerate and positive relationships between all members of the school community.
• Help pupils to develop strategies for self-evaluation, thus enabling them to realise their potential for learning and capacity for enjoyment.
• Support and develop an awareness of a healthy lifestyle
• Ensure equal opportunities and help children develop a reasoned set of attitudes, values and beliefs towards different religions, races and cultures.
• Provide a safe and happy work place.
• Promote a thoughtful attitude towards the immediate and wider environment.

Our goal is to develop the skills, concepts, attitudes and moral values necessary for each child to take their place in the world as an active, responsible member of society, capable of achieving as much independence as possible.
