Excellence:

We aim for our pupils to give their best in everything that they do. We recognise all their small steps of progress and their achievements. Whatever the child’s starting point, we have high expectations of them. All children can make progress with their academic skills, their physical skills, their communication skills, and their personal development.

Trust:

We aim for our pupils to learn in a school environment that is safe and secure, and to develop trusting relationships with others. Over time, we want our pupils to develop a sense of responsibility. We aim for children to develop an awareness of who they can trust in the wider community.

Courage:

We aim for our pupils to show courage in the challenges that they will face in life. It takes courage to have the confidence to have a go, to be willing to make mistakes, and to bounce back after a mistake. Staff model being courageous and support children’s resilience.

Determination:

We aim for our pupils to always persevere, even when something may be difficult, to keep going and not give up, and to develop a positive “can do” attitude.

Kindness:

We aim for our pupils to show kindness to others. We value being polite, friendly, and welcoming to others. Staff always act in a manner that demonstrates kindness towards children and towards each other. Staff are positive role models for children.

Friendship:

We aim for our pupils to develop communication and social interaction skills in order to develop positive friendships with others, and to take pleasure in shared experiences. Staff demonstrate friendship by being caring, supportive, having fun, and sharing ideas.

Respect:

We aim for our pupils to learn and develop in a school environment that promotes tolerance and respect for individual differences, abilities, needs, and beliefs. We aim for our pupils to develop into individuals who respect themselves and respect others by treating them with consideration and care, and recognising that not everybody is the same. Staff are positive role models at all times and demonstrate their respect for others through their behaviour.

Equity:

We aim for our pupils to experience a school environment in which fairness is promoted. Equity is achieved by understanding that individuals need different levels and types of support to achieve their goals. Staff are committed to ensuring that each individual has their needs well met.

At Stocklake Park School we aim to provide a safe, healthy, and stimulating environment in which children may develop with confidence. Please look at our Safeguarding, Policies, and Governance documents below to find out more.
