Aims
The Governors and Staff of Bishop Henderson Primary School are committed to delivering a curriculum and developing a school ethos which ensures that every child in our care will grow in self-esteem and develop their potential as human beings.
To achieve this we aim to:
- Accept children as individuals and then help to develop their personal confidence by ensuring that they use their skills to as high a level as possible.
- Develop an awareness and respect for themselves and others.
- Enable children to bring to any experience all their senses and feelings and to express them in a variety of ways.
- Develop children's spirituality through real experience and within a Christian context.
- Introduce children to experiences which will enable them to choose and discriminate, to order and to question, to reflect and to predict and to describe the things around them.
- Develop the skills necessary to work in collaboration with others and to be sensitive to each other's needs.
- Enter into a partnership with parents, to maintain fruitful contact and to encourage their positive involvement in school life.
- Develop in children an understanding of good behaviour and a realisation of how their behaviour and attitude can affect the life of others.
