School Values and Ethos

At Owston Park Primary we encourage and celebrate key school values in our pupils. Each week every class teacher in school chooses a child who has shown one of the school values and we celebrate that through a celebration assembly. A certificate is given by Mrs Semley to celebrate that child's achievement.

The school values at Owston Park Primary Academy are:

Resilience

Confidence

Engagement

Responsibility

Respectfulness

Motivation

Independence

The learning behaviours at Owston Park Primary Academy are:

Reflect wisely

Learn eagerly

Behave with integrity

Co-operate consistently

Each child deserves to develop into a strong, happy human being, who is in control of their destiny, on the path to achieving their full potential, living a bright extraordinary life defined by tolerance and human dignity.

AIMS OF THE SCHOOL

· To provide an environment in which children can trust and feel safe. We are #TeamOwston – no child left behind.

· To encourage individuals to have a positive attitude, enabling them to be self-motivated and resilient.

· To model and teach respect.

· To support children to be courageous, take risks and try out their ideas.

· To listen to children, in whatever way they choose to communicate to us, and to encourage them to listen to each other - always encouraging an appropriate response.

· To provide deep learning experiences through an equitable curriculum which develops knowledge, skills and aspiration.
