From the St Johns Primary School
We at St. John's Primary School consider education to be a shared, never-ending experience.
Our goal is to foster an environment where everyone in our community may succeed, be inspired, and acquire the skills they need to succeed in life.
Children are taught the values necessary to become a responsible, kind, hard-working, and tolerant adult through our curriculum.
The St. John's school community expects everyone to treat one another with respect.
'Learning to live, living to learn' is our school's motto.
By doing this, we recognise that each and every member of our school community is a lifelong learner.
St. John's is shaped by parents, students, and staff.
With the knowledge that they are in a secure and encouraging atmosphere at school, students are actively encouraged to make decisions.
We educate young students and set limits for them to make decisions securely as a school by offering a secure setting and powerful instruction.
Students are encouraged to be aware of, comprehend, and exercise their rights and liberties, as well as given instructions on how to do so safely, for instance through our E-Safety and PSHE lectures.
What we hold true how we instruct Each unique, each equal.
Understanding that everyone of us is unique and that we are all equal, we celebrate our uniqueness and try to learn as much as we can about one another.
We put in a lot of effort.
"Learning to live, living to learn" is our motto.
To accomplish our objectives, we strive to aim high.
Children are taught that if they put in the necessary effort, persevere, and never give up, they can accomplish anything they set their minds to.
Learning goes beyond the classroom, and we provide a wide range of adult training programmes.
Regular attendance at school is essential.
Assemblies Reward programmes: Class Dojo and house points Assertive Every two weeks, parents and students meet for mentoring.
We are truthful.
We all make mistakes but one of our most important school rules is that we always tell the truth and accept the consequences of the actions we have chosen.
Everyone has a right to equal treatment and to being heard.
Children choose the House Captains who will advocate on their behalf for changes at school each year.
Children frequently provide suggestions and demand changes that will benefit the entire school.
Recent examples include a Year 6 common room, a shared reading area and a pupil-run writing club.
Parents' views are regularly sought, through the half termly Assertive Mentoring meetings, through the annual questionnaires and through the valuable contribution of our parent governors.
