Vision And Ethos
Nurture, Aspire, Believe, Achieve
Our mission statement is ‘Nurture, Aspire, Believe, Achieve’. Our vision is simple, we want all of our children, our staff, our families and our community to feel nurtured so that they may aspire to be better, aspire to be learners, aspire to be leaders and most importantly they need to believe that they can be all that they want to be in order to achieve.
From the moment you walk into the school, this philosophy is tangible.
At Brierley:
- The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects everyone involved within the school community to share in this commitment.
- The school is proud to be a warm and welcoming school where we value the uniqueness of everyone and work with our community to develop the full potential of every child.
- The curriculum is rich, broad, balanced and relevant for all.
- Every child is given opportunities and encouragement to achieve his or her maximum potential in all aspects of school life.
- Respect, tolerance and understanding towards oneself, all other people and the world in which we live is embedded.
- Pupils become confident, lifelong learners and respectful citizens.
- The Healthy Schools' philosophy and guidelines are actively promoted and encouraged.
- Governors, staff, parents and pupils work together, valuing each other, in order to achieve the best for every member of the school community.
To achieve these aims we work hard to create a community and environment which encourages everyone to:
- Feel safe, cared for and valued.
