MISSION STATEMENT

We will prepare the children at St. Michael’s school for life, by giving them the opportunity to fulfil their potential within a happy caring Christian environment, where every individual is valued.

Teaching especially learning is at the heart of this happy caring Christian Community.

Each member of our school community:

• Is committed to high standards for all
• Is committed to meeting the needs of pupils as unique individuals
• Is committed to teamwork, each stakeholder using their gifts and talents to build up the community as a whole.
• Is committed to ongoing staff development and learning
• Is committed to improve

We believe in offering as many enriching educational and life experiences for our pupils in order to develop their social, moral, cultural and spiritual development.

“I have come that everyone may have life and have to the full”

John 10.10

Our Mission Statement reflects our commitment to treating each family and child as unique. We use assessments to identify each child’s starting point for learning and provide targeted interventions and focused teaching for those who may find it challenging to meet age-related expectations. All children experience a broad and balanced curriculum, with staff continuously seeking creative and engaging ways to expand learning opportunities, making each day inspiring and challenging.

Pupils engage in applied science, art, and exploration of our school environment to inspire learning. We ensure equal access to our curriculum for all pupils.

Our priority is to teach the essential skills of literacy and numeracy. Once these foundations are secure, we encourage pupils to apply their skills independently across all areas of school life. This includes leading meetings, taking on leadership roles, and engaging with the wider community regularly.
