St Augustine's CE Primary School

TRAUMA AND MENTAL HEALTH INFORMED SCHOOL AWARD

In our school we aim to serve our diverse community by providing an inclusive education of the highest quality, within the context of Christian belief and practice.

Our mission is to nurture and broaden young minds; equipping them with the life skills to encourage self-confidence, resilience and independence. As a school community we work in collaboration with parents, carers, children and other professionals to create a safe and supportive environment where everyone can grow develop and succeed.

Celebrating uniqueness and individuality is at the heart of everything we do at St Augustine’s ensuring that every child feels valued and is able to achieve their full potential.

Our enriched curriculum provides learners with a range of opportunities which enables them to explore their own talents and passions, understand how to keep themselves safe and view themselves as confident global citizens who can be ambassadors for change. By teaching children to be ready, respectful and safe, we hope to shape individuals who are respectful of, and will contribute to, the rapidly progressing world around them.

Through the ethos of our school which is based on the core values of love, hope, forgiveness and respect, we encourage an understanding of the meaning and significance of faith.
