At St John’s CE Primary School, the aim is to teach a diverse range of high-quality lessons, inspiring children to think innovatively, develop their individual creativity and, above all, ignite a passion for learning, whilst fulfilling the requirements of the National Curriculum. They provide a curriculum that aims to cultivate curiosity, concentration, resilience, imagination, determination, cooperation and collaboration – therein promoting a lifelong love and enjoyment of learning. The Christian ethos underpins our entire educational environment and helps to instil in children the school values of respect, thankfulness, truthfulness, forgiveness, hope and love. They value their voices, encouraging them to contribute to the ongoing development of the curriculum.
Nursery
The school’s Mission Statement includes the phrase “Nurture, Encourage, Challenge through Christ” and this is certainly lived out every day here in Nursery! Christian values are advocated and developed collectively and individually and our passionate nursery practitioners ensure that everyone feels welcome and part of our school family. Team work and collaboration are promoted from the outset as we foster unity and positive relationships at all levels; this includes nurturing the parent and carer-school partnership as they believe it is vital that they all work together to ensure the best all-round learning environment for the youngest members of our school community.
