Threaded through our curriculum intent are our 3 school rules, where we want our children to be:

‘Ready’ - Ready for learning, ready to listen, ready to go to lunch/come back in the classroom etc.

‘Respectful’ - Showing respect to their peers, to adults, to their environment, to themselves.

‘Safe’ - Safe in their learning environment, safe with the people around them and safe in the activities in which they are taking part, including online.
