Vision

Our vision at Fowey Primary School is to open the door to the world beyond. We want children at our school to have a sense of place and to be full of knowledge and wonder for the world they live in. Our learners are resilient, confident and ready to take on challenges with pride and determination.

Our mission

To provide an aspirational school environment which prepares learners with the knowledge, values and skills for them to become responsible, effective and ambitious citizens.

Our school values

At Fowey Primary School we C.A.R.E. about our world, our learning, each other, our families, our community and ourselves.

Collaboration

Here at Fowey, children appreciate the importance of learning together and sharing our knowledge. They understand that through learning and collaboration, they can open doors and create pathways. Their successes will drive forward their ambitions.

Aspiration

Our pupils know the importance of having the determination to keep going when things are difficult. Children at Fowey understand that at times they may fail, but we support them to learn from their failures and go on and achieve their dreams.

Through our curriculum offer, we encourage pupils to be curious and aspire to learn about the world in which we live. By asking questions, exploring perceptions, challenging points of view and harnessing their inquisitive nature, they increase their understanding of the world and consider their contributions towards it.

Respect

The children at Fowey respect other ideas and work. We support them to find what they are good at and provide opportunities to celebrate and respect all achievements. We encourage our pupils so that they all feel success, which supports their happiness and develops their self-respect. We show respect for our school community and the community we serve and want to instil this respect in our pupils.

Empathy

We encourage our pupils to celebrate the differences between all people, cultures and faiths. We place high importance on our relationships education and use an inquiry approach to develop pupils’ abilities to respectfully disagree. By learning about the world in which they live and the people within it, they have a better understanding and mutual respect for all.
