St Fillans Primary RC School

[EduCativ]

Our Catholic Primary School provides a wide range of experiences and opportunities to develop the faith and learning of our children. We aim to develop the whole child physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually, bringing them to full recognition of their abilities, skills, and talents.

All of our children are supported in learning by our hardworking and dedicated teaching and support staff. The school is also greatly supported by our parents, our committed Parent Council, and the Parent Teachers’ Association who work tirelessly for the benefit of all children.

St Fillan’s Primary is a school that highlights the positive, takes great pride in a sense of community, and continually seeks new opportunities to foster extended partnerships for the benefit of learning and teaching and whole school life.

We want St. Fillan’s Primary and Nursery Class to be a community:

• where everyone is treated with respect and fairness.
• where everyone continually strives to reach his/her spiritual, moral, physical, mental, and educational potential.
• where everyone works in partnership to improve and to meet the needs of all learners.
• where everyone is prepared to think creatively, try things differently, make mistakes, and learn from those mistakes.

Our Values

• Love & Respect (as described by St. Paul in his letter to the Corinthians)
• Integrity
• Faith
• Effort

St Fillan's Nursery Class is very much part of our school and is housed within the main school building with a separate entrance to the left of the main school entrance. A large number of our pupils transfer to our prImary school from St. FIllan's Nursery Class.

In line with the Scottish Government's National Priorities these are our aims:

• Achievement and Attainment - To continue to develop effective teaching and learning strategies and raise levels of attainment and achievement
• Framework for Learning - To provide a motivating learning environment matched to the individual needs of our children
• Inclusion and Equality - To reduce inequality, celebrate social and cultural diversity and promote social justice and inclusion
• Values and Citizenship - To work in partnership with parents and others in the community encouraging children to become responsible citizens
• Learning for Life - To encourage the personal growth of children and staff as effective contributors in a multi-cultural society
