Values and Ethos

Every so often one will walk into a place that inspires them to achieve the very best.  A place that encourages a mutual respect for all, and the ambition to become an independent, lifelong learner with a passion for success.  When you visit Lordship Lane Primary School, you will find such a place.  Happy, creative children and staff with a thirst for knowledge and the expectation success, coupled with the resilience to achieve well in the next stage of their educational career.

Lordship Lane Vision and Values

Values are the principles, beliefs and standards that guide our feelings, thinking and behaviour.  These values underpin the school curriculum too, informing our sense of our relationships, our society and ourselves.

Our own set of values reflects and shapes our personal view of the world and how we interact with one another.  These values are understood and practiced across the world.  By thinking about and discussing values we are helping our children to both develop their own views and opinions and respect those of others.

We want to create the climate for a happy and successful school.  We believe that positive values should underpin our curriculum and all of school life.

Together as a school community, we discussed over 100 different values. We worked in teams with staff, parents and children to decide on the 6 values we felt were the most important for the children in our wonderful school.

Our values are: Success, Perseverance, Ambition, Respect, Creativity and Independence.  Here at Lordship Lane we are SPARCI!
