We want our pupils to produce work of the highest quality which they will then take pride in. We want pupils to believe they can overcome barriers to their learning and that anything is possible. We want pupils to take inspiration from a broad range of cultures, people and achievements and be encouraged to unlock their own potential. We want to expose our pupils to a wide spectrum of possibilities and prepare them for the wider world. We want to develop resilience in our pupils and give them the tools to recover from set back. We want pupils to know that gender, race, background, disability or religion should never stop your interest in a career path or aspiration.

Dreams and Goals:  Year 4 Future Careers Event

As part of our PSHE curriculum on helping our pupils aspire to exciting careers in the future, we were visited by Bill Millar from Altrad Babcock.  He talked to Year 4 pupils about jobs they could do in the future which they might never have even known about.  During the session, pupils were set Lego challenges to help they develop employability skills such as teamwork, resilience, communication and determination.  

Our Early Years Foundation Stage children have loved celebrating make your dreams come true day! The children came to school dressed as something they aspire to be when they grow up and they all looked fantastic! They spent the day exploring different career stations such as the doctors, dentist, builders yard and salon!

We want our children to aspire to be whatever they desire in life, and to overcome any barriers they may face along the way.  Each year, all junior classes participate in a wheelchair basketball session, where they learn not only valuable skills about the sport itself, but also how any body can be successful and reach their goals and dreams, and how success may look different for each individual.

Our Early Years children enjoyed celebrating 'make your dreams come true day 2023.' The children came into school dressed as what they dream of being when they grow up. We had so many amazing aspirations, including doctors, firefighters and zookeepers. Our Early Years parents/guardians also sent in hopes and dreams messages for their children, which have been displayed in the Early Years classrooms!
