Working Together, Learning Together and Growing Together
At Ardleigh Green Infant School we value every individual and the contribution they have to make to
our school community.
Our aim is for staff and children to reach their full potential within a caring, supportive and
stimulating environment, characterised by excellence, enjoyment and high quality teaching and
learning. Our vision is for everyone to grow.
In order to achieve this, we aim to:
· Promote excellence, enjoyment and high achievement across the curriculum.
· Create a happy, stimulating and challenging learning environment which provides equal
opportunities for all children.
· Develop the intellectual and physical potential of every child. · Ensure every child is literate
and numerate with a high level of computing capability.
· Develop spiritual, moral, social and cultural values. Maintain a school ethos based on mutual
trust, respect and understanding.
· Fully involve parents and carers in their children’s education.
· Prepare our children to be responsible citizens in a multi-cultural society through embracing
the fundamental British Values of Democracy, The Rule of Law, Individual Liberty, Mutual
Respect and Understanding of different faiths and beliefs.
· Maintain a high quality staff team who are valued and work collaboratively for the good of
our children.
· Develop and promote Ardleigh Green Infant School as a centre of excellence.
As a school we recognise that our aims and values can only be achieved through parents, children,
staff and governors, working and learning together as partners in our children’s Learning Journey.
Working Together
This involves maintaining a Learning Climate based on high expectations, trust, respect and mutual
understanding, ensuring our vision and values permeate the life of our school.
Learning Together
This involves maintaining a Learning Culture that builds on the past, learns from the present and
embraces the future, ensuring that teaching and learning continues to be characterised by high
expectations and excellence and enjoyment.
Growing Together
This involves maintaining a Learning Ethos where high expectations, positive relationships, together
with appropriate support and encouragement, ensures that pupils and staff achieve their full
potential.
Our vision and aims are based on our four core values of Excellence, Enjoyment, Respect, and
Equality.
At Ardleigh Green Infant School we believe in developing our children’s learning potential so that
they become resilient, resourceful, respectful, responsible and reflective learners who are confident
to take risks and who develop strong positive relationships to support their own learning.
Our vision, aims and values seek to develop, caring, considerate and conscientious learners who
seek to achieve their personal best in whatever they do.
As a school we are passionate about teaching and learning, committed to children achieving their
full potential and determined to provide innovative and inspirational learning opportunities for all
our children.
We want all our children to be the “Best that they can be.” At Ardleigh Green we believe in nurturing
the talents and abilities of every child through providing a stimulating learning environment in which
our children are motivated to fulfil their academic, sporting and artistic potential.
Our children are not educated to simply pass exams but to enjoy the adventure of learning. We
believe in traditional values re-invented for the digital age and aim to ensure that our pupils leave
school well prepared for the increasingly complex challenges of the technological world in which we
live.
As a Learning community we recognise the importance of giving our children the necessary
knowledge, skills and understanding to equip them for life in the technological world in which they
live.
We believe in traditional values re-invented for the digital age and the importance of teaching our
children how to learn so that they might become:
Fit for life
Inspired to learn
Ready to participate
Safe and secure
Trained for work and play
In short we want our all our children to be the best that they can be!
