Our school motto is:
We Aim High and Learn Together.
Our school ethos, vision and values are promoted and integrated into all short term and long- term practice including this long term strategic plan:
Our Mission:
When we come to Eslington we come with a past, we enjoy the present and we will leave with the 4Rs as our values to support our future. Eslington Primary School is where traditional values of respect are protected, high standards of discipline promoted and all this is partnered with positive relationships and nurturing principles underpinning all that we do and say.
Our Vision:
Our ambition for the future is to support our pupils build social confidence, resilience and self-belief that will help them to grow into happy, respectful and responsible young people. We aim to make a difference every single day.
To assist all pupils to achieve their fullest potential in all aspects of development, in order that they may contribute positively to the society in which they live both now and in their future adult life.
At Eslington Primary school, we aim to be inclusive, enabling and aspirational. A single, simple global aim is pursued:-
-Inclusive whereby every child and their family feel valued, respected and accepted, and whereby every child has their individual needs met within our school community.
-Enabling whereby each child will learn to be self-motivated, have the desire to achieve, develop resilience when they fail, and be able to communicate their feelings.
-Aspirational whereby every child will receive high quality teaching, a tailored and stimulating creative curriculum within an excellent learning environment, transforming both the expectations and outcomes for all our pupils.
Our Values:
- Respect-for ourselves, each other, cultures, religions, the environment and the world in which we live.
- Responsibility-being responsible citizens for the future
- Resilience-knowing that it is ok to fail. To have the ability to bounce back and try and try again.
- Relationships-to understand what a healthy relationship is and be able to form productive, healthy relationships to support us through school and our future.
Our School Ethos:
- Continue to embed a culture underpinned by the belief that pupils will progress through applied nurturing principles and environment, encouragement, high expectations and individual commitment. A culture that enables staff and children to feel valued, respected and know that they are making a difference. A culture that supports the long term improvements for children emotionally, socially and academically.
- Increase the range of personal opportunities offered to all our pupils as a result of the high levels of skilled and knowledgeable staff across our school.
- Improve learning outcomes for pupils by providing an educational provision that will meet all our pupils’ individual needs aged from 4 to 11, and to prepare them for the transition to the secondary phase of education and beyond.
- To share practice and expertise within all Key Phases beyond our school community, to ensure better outcomes for all pupils within our Gateshead Schools’ Community.
