Our Values
A value is a principle that guides our thinking and our behaviour.
At St Helens, every individual is valued for who they are and what they contribute to the school. Values are intended to support the personal, social and spiritual development of every pupil throughout the school.
​
The whole staff team, parents and pupils are involved in promoting values and recognising where others are "living the values".
​
Through the values we aim to:
​
-
Improve behaviour, conduct and self-confidence by developing strong values within the pupils at the school
-
Develop pupils' understanding of what values are and why they are important in life
-
Encourage children to "live the values" in all aspects of their lives, in and out of school
-
Promote values to pupils in every aspect of school life
-
Promote values in the way in which adults interact with eachother and pupils
-
To link our school values with the British values

Tolerance
At St Helens Primary school we aim to promote tolerance and respect for all cultures and faiths through our school vision, values, rules, curriculum and teaching. We take seriously our role in preparing our pupils for life in modern Britain, within the school and wider community. We recognise that Britain is a multi-cultural, multi-faith country and our location in a small rural village means we have to ensure our pupils have access to a wide range of experiences.
