visions and values


Vision
Our vision, at Dame Ellen Pinsent, is for all children to ‘Shine Like a Star’.
At Dame Ellen Pinsent we aim to create an environment, where children are valued and supported to develop independence and confidence, so they can be happy and achieve their very best.
We understand the needs of our children and hold these at the heart of all that we plan and do. Children leave our school ready for their next phase of learning and life equipped with the values to allow them feel confidence and pride in who they are and what they have achieved.
Our School Values
Our school values are celebrated in weekly celebration assemblies and are reflected in the behaviour of both adults and children alike.
Determination and Patience: Not giving up, especially when trying or learning something new
Kindness: Looking after our friends, adults and resources at school.
Respect: Using our manners and respecting beliefs and opinions of others, even if they are different from our own.
Courage and Bravery: Trying new things.
Happiness and Joy: Enjoying our learning and showing it!
Teamwork: Supporting and working alongside others.
Independence: Trying to do things, without any help.
