Visions and Values
At Seahouses Primary School, we operate in close partnership with families and the wider community. Our ambition is simple: we aspire to be the best school we can be, recognising that every child’s first experience of formal education should be nothing short of exceptional. Our aim is to cultivate a safe, caring, and stimulating environment that allows every child to achieve their full potential across all areas of learning.
We believe that success begins on the very first day of school, and it is our commitment to instil a lasting love for learning in our pupils, preparing them not just for academic success but for a lifelong journey of inquiry and personal growth. We celebrate 'wow' and 'eureka' moments, promoting a culture where mistakes are viewed as integral to the learning journey. Our focus on developing a growth mindset encourages pupils to appreciate hard work and perseverance, helping them embrace challenges while fostering respect for themselves and the world around them.
To achieve these goals, we plan and deliver a diverse range of creative and effective learning opportunities that cater to the unique needs of each child. Our school ethos is rooted in mutual respect, inclusivity, and a clear comprehension of rights and responsibilities, ensuring that every individual within our community feels valued and secure.
We also emphasise the importance of global citizenship, facilitating local, national, and international connections to deepen our pupils' understanding of the diverse world we inhabit. By nurturing a sense of responsibility within our children, we prepare them to engage positively with their communities both now and in the future.
Our school motto, “Aspiring to be the best we can be!”, serves as a guiding principle in all that we do.
Our values are:
ASPIRE
- Achieve, Attitude
- Success, Sharing
- Perseverance,
- Independence
- Respect, Responsibility
- Enthusiasm, Encouragement
Our core values, linked to Christian teachings, underpin the development of the whole child. Each half term, we focus on a specific value, enabling our students to recognise and embody these principles in their behaviour and attitudes. We are proud to reward children who exhibit these values, fostering a culture of recognition and encouragement that extends to families.
Seahouses Primary School welcomes individuals of all faiths and beliefs. Our close relationships with the Church of England and visits from Canon Tony and ‘Open the Book’ enrich our community spirit while respecting the diverse beliefs of our members.
We believe it is essential for our shared vision and values to be understood and embraced throughout the school community. We welcome any further collaboration to ensure our children receive the holistic education they deserve.
