What We Do Matters To Allenby Primary School

School Mission Statement and Aims

All of the work that we do within the school revolves around our mission statement and school aims.

Our aims are deliberately broad as governors and staff believe that we must not only take into account our curricular aims, but other areas of school life are equally important, such as: - the learning environment; the behaviour which we expect from children; our expectations of staff; the relationship which we have with parents; the appearance and use of the site; the way we manage our finances and the role of governors.

Our mission statement and aims are as follows: - 

Mission Statement

Our school is a small, caring community, where individuals are valued and achieve self-esteem through success. Children and adults are encouraged to belong to, learn and develop in an inclusive and positive learning environment. Our actions impact on others – ‘what we do matters’ – so in learning, attitudes, behaviour and aspirations we strive to make a difference for the better.
