At Saint Teresa’s Primary, we have a close partnership with the parents and carers of our pupils and we work closely with the local parish, St. Teresa of Lisieux. We have also established good working relations with the other schools in the Saint Roch’s Learning Community, as well as the other establishments situated on Keppoch Campus.
If you decide to enroll your child at Saint Teresa’s we will be delighted to work in partnership with you. If you are already a member of our school community then this site should help to keep you updated about many aspects of school life.
The staff in Saint Teresa’s Primary realize that it is a privilege to be a part of the life of your child but acknowledge that the parents and carers are the first educators of the children. We are there to develop and extend the good work being done at home.
To carry out our mission statement and to achieve the aims we need the support and understanding of parents so that we can work in partnership with them. Our pupils deserve all the help and encouragement that we can give them so that they can develop all their talents to the fullest so that they can become confident individuals who can make an effective and relevant contribution to the society in which they live. If there is any information that you think could be added please let me know so that it can be considered.
Curriculum for Excellence has been introduced to raise standards of learning and teaching for all 3 to 18-year-olds. It aims to help prepare children and young people with the knowledge and skills they need in a fast-changing world. As part of the Curriculum for Excellence, all children from pre-school to the end of S3 will receive a rounded education known as Broad General Education (BGE).
Curriculum for Excellence is all about bringing real life into the classroom and taking lessons beyond it. Through the experiences we provide at St. Teresa’s Primary School we want our children to become successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens, and effective contributors. We are committed to providing children with a broad general education and focus on eight curriculum areas:
Expressive Arts, Health & Wellbeing, Languages, Mathematics, Religious & Moral Education, Sciences, Social Studies, and Technologies.
