Our Rights Respecting Parents and our Rights Respecting Children working together to make a difference! 

What We Do Matters To Allenby Primary School

Vision and Values

Everything we do is based around our articles and our core vales for learning and behaviour. 

Our 5 Rights:

1. The Right to Safe

2. The Right to be Educated

3. The Right to Play

4. The Right to be Healthy

5. The Right to be Heard

Our 6 Allenby Values:

1. Step Up

2. Be the Change

3. Aim High

4. Choose Kindness

5. Belive You Can

6. Together We Can.

These ‘Rights and Values' are used as a cornerstone in how we deal with all situations at our school and how we reward and challenge our children. We believe that by demonstrating these ‘Rights and Values’ every day, children will become positive members of their school and local community. Our parents, carers and guardians are vital partners in all the work we do. It is important that together we build a firm relationship between home and school. During the children’s years at Allenby Primary we hope they will enjoy the stimulating and caring environment we provide and thrive both socially and academically. 

School Mission Statement

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

Our aims are deliberately broad. 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: - 

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. 

Everything we do for our pupils and staff is to enure that they can all become the best versions of themselves. To assist our pupils in becoming the best that we can be, we aim to develop the 6 values below:

Step Up

Be the Change

Be brave and courageous even when things seem tough and you want to give up. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel. Have the self-discipline to do the right thing, even when it is hard or easier not to. Sometimes the right thing is the hardest choice to make but have integrity to make this choice. Develop self-discipline, step up, do what needs to be done, even if you do not want to.

… says “Bravery is not the absence of fear, it is stepping into fear and overcoming it.”

Start with you. Stand up for what is right and take personal responsibility. Have integrity in everything you do. Be yourself and have the strength and confidence to make the right choices. Lead by example; others will follow. Be the change you wish to see in the world.

 

….says “Let your conscience be your guide- always ask yourself, is this the right thing to do.”

Aim High

Believe you Can

Aim high. The higher the better. And don’t let anything stand in your way! Be ambitious, aspirational and interested in your future. Be curious, dedicated to learning, your growth and have a thirst for knowledge. Always remember, success is a habit not a final destination. Dream big and know that you are capable of anything that you set your mind to. Reach for the moon and even if you fall short you’ll land amongst the stars

...says “It is better to aim high and miss than aim low and succeed!”

Always remember, you’ve got this! You can do it. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.  Failure is your friend; it is not the opposite of success, it is part of the journey to success. Remember the ‘power of yet’. The first time you tackle something new, you may not accomplish it… yet. With hard work, determination, positive feedback, perseverance and true grit you will achieve anything you put your mind to.

...ays “Remember, EVERYTHING is hard before it is easy.”

Together we Can

Choose Kindness

Celebrate belonging to our diverse community. Be open-minded, respectful of others and ready to collaborate to achieve our common goals. Listen, to truly understand and communicate your views in a respectful manner. Remember, our similarities make us strong, but our differences make us stronger.

 

… says “ Together we can do great things.”

 

Treat all people the way you wish to be treated. Be thoughtful, considerate, forgiving and generous. Seek to understand others. Be empathetic, compassionate and go out of your way to help. Be kind to yourself as well as others. Make sensible and healthy choices for both your mind and your body to enable you to be the best you can be. Think kind thoughts, use kind words, choose kind actions.

 

….. says ‘Treat all people the way you wish to be treated.’
