At Freegrounds Infant School we encourage everyone to develop a strong sense of identity, self-worth and happiness, with a thirst for learning. We are relentless in the pursuit of the very best outcomes for all our children.

We aim to achieve this through:

•        creating a culture of inclusion and respect

•        providing high quality teaching and learning, first hand experiences, high levels of                   

         collaboration, challenge and support

•        creating an exciting, stimulating, resource rich environment which supports learning through

          interactive displays and the use of the latest technology

•        building on previous learning, teaching key skills and creating opportunities to explore and be           curious

•        enabling or encouraging everyone to become confident to pursue their own interests, brave             to take risks and independent and motivated to learn

•        working in close collaboration with each other, parents and other agencies , schools and the             wider community

•        valuing  the ideas and celebrating the achievement, successes and individuality of everyone.

Our Values

At Freegrounds we have a set of Values which underpin the children’s spiritual, moral, cultural and social development and learning. As a school we decided what values were important to us and we strongly believe that they are central to good citizenship and lifelong learning:

Independence – learning to work and make decisions on my own, making my own choice to lead my learning

Teamwork – learning to work with others, sharing ideas, respecting the opinions of others

Thinking – processing information, using thinking hats

Motivation – striving to achieve my best

Engagement – show curiosity and explore using our senses

Respect – respect for ourselves and our environment

Our Values underpin the way we at Freegrounds work, behave and treat all members of the school community.
