'Ambition, Community & Equality'

Our school values are at the core of everything we do. They underpin our teaching and learning, and provide an environment which prepares our pupils to be confident, happy citizens.

Ambition

Elms Farm Primary School has high expectations that both staff and pupils will aspire to be the best they can be. We support, develop and aim to retain highly motivational staff. We understand that success looks different for everyone and because of this we provide a climate that enables personal growth for all.

Elms Farm Primary School is committed to deliver high quality education. This value is underpinned by a culture amongst all stakeholders that makes it clear that there are no excuses for the pupils not to achieve high standards in their learning and their behaviour. We are ambitious for every pupil to achieve their best.  Rigorous quality assurance is ensured through strong governance and a framework of accountability and responsibility by all.

Community 

Elms Farm Primary School work closely with our parents and carers, local schools and external agencies.  We value an open line of communication to ensure that best practice is shared so that all staff develop professionally and all children succeed to their utmost. We recognise that in order to provide the most effective provision we listen to, value and strategically utilise the experience and practice of all stakeholders.

Equality 

Elms Farm Primary School is forward thinking in its approach to the demands of the 21st century curriculum. Our broad, balanced and creative curriculum provides all pupils with the skills and knowledge to become life-long learners. We welcome challenge from all stakeholders and provide an environment that encourages staff to reflect on and debate the way they teach. As a school we promote equality  and endeavour to  ensure individuals are treated fairly and equally, no matter their race, gender, age, disability, religion or sexual orientation.
