Values, Ethos & Vision

We hope that all pupils enjoy school by adopting a positive attitude and see learning new ideas and ways of solving problems as an adventure which opens up a whole series of opportunities to succeed. Our aim is to provide children with the knowledge, understanding and skills they will need for the future whilst also developing their individual talents. Children are encouraged to take part in the many extra-curricular activities on offer in both the school and the community.

We want our pupils to be proud of their achievements and of their school. We encourage all members of the school to develop a respect, understanding and appreciation of each other through our school Code of Conduct. We are firmly committed to equality of opportunity for all and try to ensure this permeates all aspects of school life. The School Council represents the views of pupils and their ideas and contributions are taken seriously. This is how our pupils can influence the nature and character of the school.

We value the major role of parents in the education of their child and we welcome your comments, ideas and most of all your support in our efforts to provide the very best education we can for all of the children who attend Overchurch Junior School.

We will work with you to aim for the highest standards for all our pupils.
