Introduction
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” —Nelson Mandela
In this world of turbulence and time of economic pressure, creating opportunities for young people to have the broadest experiences to expand their minds is essential. Children are the future, and ‘education is the passport’ to success.
“The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.” —Sydney J. Harris
We will continue to provide the very best curriculum experiences, and explore further opportunities to ensure young people can take advantage of, and contribute to, the world ahead of them. It is important that we prepare children for the challenges they will face, ensuring they have the necessary skills and qualities to be successful.
“Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.” —Malcolm X
Although curriculum breadth is incredibly important to our success, the pursuit of academic excellence also remains a priority. We understand this is different for individual young people, and it is important to have a personalised approach but one with high aspirations.
“Education’s purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one.” —Malcolm Forbes
We also know we need to develop our own minds as colleagues, we will use latest research and nationally recognised strategies to support practice across our settings. Sustaining and developing practice is key to consistent delivery across our schools.
