St Winifred's Catholic Primary School

[EduCativ]

St. Winifred’s Catholic Primary School is a voluntary aided, two-form entry school. The school is part of the Our Lady of Lourdes parish in the diocese of Southwark.

St. Winifred’s is an inclusive school, at the heart of the local community. We are proud to have strong links with the parish, an extremely active PTA (The Friends of St. Winifred’s), and very dedicated Governors. The school is proud of its welcoming and supportive environment, in which everybody is respected and valued.

St. Winifred is immersed in an exciting and creative curriculum that enables excellent achievement in all areas of learning. The school has high standards of behavior rooted in Gospel values. Our pupils are nurtured and enabled to reach their full potential in a safe and supportive environment.

At St Winifred’s Catholic Primary School:

• We nourish a happy, safe and supportive school community in which every individual is welcomed, valued, and respected for being unique
• We inspire a search for excellence by offering the best possible learning environment
• We provide a Christ-centred education, helping our children to develop and grow in faith and teaching them to promote the Gospel values of love of neighbor, fairness, and forgiveness, both in school and in the wider community.

St. Winifred’s is a caring community that aims to live out the Gospel values of love, justice, care, and peace. It is the policy of the school to treat all members of our community with dignity and respect.

It is our firm belief that good behavior and good learning and teaching are inextricably linked. We do not tolerate fighting, bullying, racism, rudeness, dishonesty, theft, persistent disruption, or unkindness. We believe that pupils respond best to praise and encouragement rather than negative criticism. This is reflected in the way in which rewards and sanctions are used.

The Governing Body has responsibility for setting down guidelines on standards of behavior and discipline and for monitoring their effectiveness. Staff, pupils, and parents all have roles to play in creating and maintaining a safe and supportive environment in which learning can thrive.
