Ethos, Aims & Values
Our Ethos
All schools have their own unique identity, and we believe that at Brickhouse Primary School, we have created a friendly, caring and supportive environment that encourages our pupils to fully learn and develop.
We are a busy, but friendly one form entry primary school, where the staff, children, parents and governors welcome all families to share the very high quality education we provide. We work as a team to create the physical, social and intellectual conditions necessary to promote an effective and improving school, where everyone feels they belong and is valued, secure and respected.
At Brickhouse, our children are happy, safe and well-motivated. Our talented staff use their expertise and experience to extend the opportunities of our pupils both in the classroom and in a range of extracurricular clubs, trips and activities and our strong and committed Governing Body fully supports the school in providing the best possible educational opportunities for all. As a school, we actively seek to promote community involvement wherever possible.
It is from these foundations that we encourage excellence, share success and enable all children to realise their full potential in preparation for a successful future life.
Essentially, we believe children are our future and our purpose.
