Our Ethos and Vision

Proud Children, Proud Staff, Proud Parents!
Picture
Every child is recognised and encouraged to be their own person, we celebrate and nurture each child’s individuality here at James Peacock. Our shared aim is to inspire every child to achieve their full potential by ensuring learning is engaging, challenging and fun.

The journey of learning starts with the ability to understand and recall basic skills, knowledge, concepts and values. We equip our children with the tools they need to ask questions about the world around them. Our curriculum design ensures that we provide opportunities which truly hook children into their learning. In Early Years we believe strongly in following our children’s interests as we design and adapt the curriculum achieving a balance between adult guided activities and child initiated exploration. As we move into Key Stage one these skills are built on as a foundation through a progressive approach to teaching our children about the world around them.

Our curriculum has been designed to:-
  • recognise and build on children’s prior learning
  • provide first-hand memorable learning experiences
  • Encourage and provide opportunities for children to work collaboratively
  • build resilience and determination
  • become creative, critical thinkers.

We understand here at James Peacock the importance of ensuring children are engaged and excited for their learning.
We promote positive attitudes to learning through our PROUD values, these reflect the values and skills needed to promote dedication to learning and future success.

Our Values: PROUD; Perseverance, Respect, Opportunities, United, and Determination
 
Our shared aspiration is for all of our children to leave us as life long, independent thinkers who are well prepared to play a positive role as active citizens in life in the modern world.
