‘Every Child, Every Chance, Every Day’
Our Vision 2023/4
Happiness and a sense of belonging are the keys to success. At Calmore Junior School, ensuring our children experience both of these feelings during their time with us is at the heart of all we do.
We are committed to providing a positive, safe and stimulating environment that supports us in delivering memorable and purposeful experiences. By creating curious minds, we encourage a thirst for learning helping them know more, remember more and be able to do more, with a willingness to take risks.
We nurture children within our Calmore family to be respectful of themselves, each other and of our world, encouraging them to be the best they can be, and rightly proud of who they are.
Calmore Values
At the core of everything we do, we live and learn by these values:
Respect Honesty Kindness Responsibility Friendship Ambition Curiosity
We believe that the primary years at school are a vital part of the whole development of each child. In support of this belief, we strive to:
- Achieve high standards of learning and behaviour
- Provide a safe and supportive space to thrive
- Encourage a sense of self-worth as well as respect and tolerance for others
- Encourage children to develop positive attitudes to life and develop a sense of wellbeing
- Provide an exciting curriculum that is motivating, creative and fun
- Actively promote British Values [tolerance, the Rule of Law, justice, respect and liberty]
- Ensure that children flourish and achieve their full potential
- Engage the support of parents and the community in the process of learning
- Encourage children to develop personal, social, spiritual and cultural values
We strive to encourage all of our children to develop the confidence and enthusiasm to become lifelong learners – to be independent, accurate, fluent and able to generalise and transfer their learned knowledge and skills.
