Aims and Values

Our Values

A school community must have a set of shared values in order to work effectively towards achieving the aims of the establishment.  Shared values set the ethos of the school and enable us to work effectively towards our common goals. Our ethos is illustrated by our Values Tree: 

Our values are at the “root” of all that we do.

They support our “growth” as individuals.

They provide the “trunk” for our school community.

We have a responsibility to ensure that everyone in our school community feels that they belong by showing:

Respect

Caring

Trust

Perseverance

And ensuring                   Equality & Equity

Our Aims

  • To foster, amongst the whole school community, a climate of excellence.
  • To enable each child to achieve their potential both academically, through the acquisition of knowledge and understanding, and in terms of personal achievements by fostering positive attitudes.
  • To ensure every child receives the support needed to achieve their potential including additional support for learning, child protection, emotional and mental health.
  • For every child in our school to feel nurtured, respected and happy.
  • To prepare each child to live and work beside people, in school and in the future, co-operatively and respectfully.
  • To develop a sense of values and moral responsibility towards each other and the world we live in.
  • To develop in each child a commitment to, and enjoyment of, lifelong learning and the study skills to enable this to happen.
  • To enable each child to develop effective communication skills, both oral and written.
  • To involve parents, carers and the wider school community in a meaningful and purposeful partnership.
  • To develop a sense of pride in Scottish and local cultures whilst at the same time developing an understanding, appreciation and respect for other cultures.
