Our Mission Statement
At St Martin’s we aim to create a community of lifelong learners who, in a safe environment of mutual respect, acquire and develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes to lead happy, productive and fulfilling lives.
Our Values – Every Child Matters
In line with the Children’s Act and our school motto we put the well-being of each child at the forefront of all our planning and decision making.
Our Aims:
- To provide an environment in which a healthy lifestyle is promoted and encouraged.
- To provide an environment which keeps children and adults safe from physical, emotional or psychological harm.
- To ensure that all children and adults have equality of opportunity to be self-motivated, lifelong learners who enjoy learning and thus to achieve their full potential.
- To be at the heart of the local community, both drawing on the strengths of that community and providing support for community groups and individuals as appropriate.
- To enable all children and adults to develop their knowledge and skills and to be aware of life and career opportunities in order to fulfill their potential for independence and economic well-being.
