School Vision, Values and Aims
We consulted with our parents, pupils and staff to create our school vision, values and aims. Our Pupil Website Team and Pupil Digital Leaders created the visual shown below.
Our Vision – What we feel is important for our school
At Newarthill Primary School we provide a supportive, welcoming learning environment where pupils feel confident, motivated and inspired to learn, enabling them to become independent life-long learners.
Our Values
Our values were agreed in consultation with pupils, staff and parents. After careful consideration we agreed that all eight values shown below are important qualities we wish to promote both within and out with our school community.
Our values are used as part of our everyday language in school. They are on display in every class and in other prominent areas around our school.
