From the Wood Green Junior School
A good ethos and atmosphere of respect and trust built upon shared values among the school community, including parents of children and young people, serve as the foundation for learning. Children and teenagers should be encouraged to participate in school activities and projects and, from an early age, to take on their duties as community members. This includes chances to contribute responsibly to decision-making, to serve as role models and leaders, to provide assistance and service to others, and to actively take part in putting the school community's ideals into action.
