School Values
At Histon and Impington Brook Primary School we aim to prepare every child for their future. We do this by providing a broad and balanced education that offers challenge in a safe and stimulating environment. This involves developing every child’s personal, social, academic and community life. We aim to:
Personal
- value and share all children’s efforts and achievements to develop each child’s self- confidence and their self-esteem;
- ensure children appreciate, care for and explore the environment around us as well as having an awareness of the changing world;
- promote health related activities to enhance the development of every individual’s physical and emotional wellbeing.
Social
- promote a happy, welcoming, friendly, inclusive and purposeful atmosphere where children and adults are respected, supported and listened to;
- ensure equality of opportunity for every child and adult;
- develop an understanding of and respect for religious beliefs and moral values of other people and cultures as well as their own, appreciating the diversity of the world around us;
- help our children be kind, polite, honest and trustworthy and to become caring, responsible members of the school, the wider community and a positive global citizen.
Academic
- foster high standards of achievement and encourage all children to work hard and to strive for excellence;
- provide an engaging curriculum which helps each child to be flexible in their approach to learning, open minded and innovative in their thinking and keen to investigate.
Community
- be welcoming and accessible to parents/ carers;
- encourage partnerships and involvement with parents/carers, school advisors and the community and value their contributions to the life of the school;
- encourage children to take part in the range of extra-curricular activities provided.
Our school values underpin our teaching and learning, and provide an environment which prepares our children as confident, happy citizens.
