From the St Margaret's CofE Primary School
At St Margaret's, we believe that children grow and learn in a safe, happy and stimulating environment; a place where they are valued as individuals, encouraged to grow in self-esteem and given every opportunity to flourish and reach their potential. Our Christian religion, which serves as the foundation of our school, governs how we live each day. We work to build the Christian foundations from which children can develop into caring and responsible individuals in society by encouraging respect for one another, our environment, and the diversity of cultures that make up the world in which we live. We appreciate the collaboration between home and school. We want to foster a love of learning, awe for God's creation, and a readiness for the challenges that lie ahead by collaborating closely with parents and carers. The teaching and learning accomplishments, attitudes, and general wellbeing of every child and adult are important at St. Margaret's since we are an educationally inclusive institution. We take concrete measures to encourage variety awareness and tolerance, thereby preparing the child for life in a multicultural society. children who require assistance in learning English as a second language.
