Maynards Green Community Primary School Vision & Values

The School values are embedded in every aspect of what we do as a school community. We believe and feel that these are values that have informed and underpin British society. To embed these ideas we promote a curriculum with an emphasis on creativity and the arts, independent enquiry, reflective thinking and collaboration. 

At Maynards Green we aim to:

• To enable pupils to develop their self-knowledge, self-esteem and self-confidence;

• To enable pupils to distinguish right from wrong and to respect the civil and criminal law of Britain;

• To encourage pupils to accept responsibility for their behaviour, show initiative, and to understand how they can contribute positively to the lives of those living and working in the locality of the school and to society more widely;

• To enable pupils to acquire a broad general knowledge of and respect for public institutions and services in Britain;

• To further tolerance and harmony between different cultural traditions by enabling pupils to acquire an appreciation of and respect for their own and other cultures;

• To encourage respect for other people;

• To encourage respect for democracy and support for participation in the democratic processes, including respect for the basis on which the law is made and applied in Britain.

Pupils are encouraged to know, understand and exercise their rights and personal freedoms and are advised how to exercise these safely through:

• Online Safety and PSHE lessons

• Choices about their learning challenge and how they record

• Participation in our numerous extended learning clubs and opportunities

• Circle time 

• Pupil conferencing

• Non-uniform days
