Vision and Values
At Phoenix Primary School, we are proud to be a nurturing, inclusive school with a strong family culture at its heart. Every child is known, valued, and supported to thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally. We believe that children achieve their best when staff, families, and the wider community work together as one team.
Our school is built on four core values:
-
Resilience – Staying positive and persevering, even when things are challenging
-
Responsibility – Taking ownership of our learning, behaviour, and choices
-
Kindness – Showing empathy, compassion, and respect for others
-
Ambition – Aiming high and believing in ourselves and our potential
These values are embedded in everything we do. They shape our curriculum, guide our behaviour, and are reflected in the everyday interactions between staff and pupils. They are just as important to the adults in our community as they are to our children.
Our curriculum and personal development offer reflect our values and celebrate the rich diversity of our school community. It is inclusive, ambitious, and designed to ensure that every child develops the knowledge, skills, and character they need to succeed in school and in life.
We believe that our children are never too young to make a difference. Through learning about global issues such as sustainability, equality, and human rights, our pupils grow into thoughtful, responsible citizens. They use their creativity and confidence to solve problems, lead change, and become world changers.
We are proud of the strong partnerships we build with families and the wider community. Whether through volunteering, school events, or fundraising for good causes, our children learn that even small actions can have a big impact.
At Phoenix, our motto is:
“Where we rise to the challenge” – and we do, every day, together as a Phoenix family.
