We developed our school’s vision and aims in consultation with pupil, parents, staff and the wider community. Our vision is to inspire the Barsail family to “Dream Big, Aim High, Achieve More!”

In Barsail Primary we are working together to prepare children for the future in a safe, challenging and motivating environment where they are nurtured, valued, respected and supported to reach their full potential, enabling them to have the skills and confidence to succeed in today’s society.

Values

We want all of the Barsail family to hold these values in their HEARTS:

Honesty, Empathy, Ambition, Respect, Teamwork, Success

We aim to do this by:

· Creating a welcoming, inclusive ethos which encourages, challenges and supports all learners to realise their potential

· Providing an environment where pupils, parents and staff are respected and valued, partnerships are fostered and success is celebrated

· Supporting and encouraging high quality leadership at all levels ensuring forward thinking, creativity and innovation through a shared vision of excellence

· Creating a safe, stimulating learning environment which is well resourced and organised with skilled, motivated staff who have high expectations and standards for all

· Providing a broad, balanced, coherent and progressive curriculum which offers challenge and enjoyment appropriate to each learner’s needs

· Developing confident, resilient, independent thinking learners who can work effectively on their own and in a team using effective Literacy, Numeracy and IT skills

· Ensuring high levels of attainment and achievement for all through the best quality learning and teaching experiences
