St James’ Quest for Learning

Our curriculum is designed to develop innovators, leaders and creative thinkers. We aim to provide opportunities for children to connect skills and knowledge, to have opportunities to apply knowledge in contexts that fire the imagination and stimulate a desire to explore.

Through our teaching we aim to enable all children to discover what they can do!

We believe that together, teachers and parents possess the ability to inspire interest, motivate learning and provide meaningful opportunities, which allow children to explore, question and discover for themselves.

Our curriculum intent is to grow children who are:

are able to engage confidently in social interactions both in school and within the wider community;
have a strong sense of pride in themselves and their cultures and backgrounds;
are resilient, confident, self –motivated and independent individuals;
know how to keep themselves safe – have a sense of security;
are passionate about developing their skills and enjoy a challenge;
find inspiration in others;
build positive relationships;

Together we will strive to provide our children with knowledge, wisdom and skills needed to fulfil their full potential, serve their community and achieve their future goals and aspirations.

St James’ and the Three R’s

Respect

We believe in building respect – both the parent and the school must feel valued, trusted and listened to. At St James’ the needs of the child must always come first and the child’s development must form the basis of all our interactions.

In building respect, we will take steps to advance equality of opportunity, foster good relations and eliminate discrimination or harassment across all the protected characteristics (age, race, gender reassignment, disability, marriage and civil partnership, religion and belief, pregnancy, maternity and paternity, gender, sexual orientation) within the school community.
