Values & Celebrations
Our Vision
The Carlton Way: At Carlton we teach with compassion in a creative and collaborative Christian community that promotes a love of learning, growth and success for all.
Our Motto:
'I am the vine, you are the branches; those that abide in me and I in them bear much fruit' John 15:5
Values
At Carlton C of E Primary we expect all of our children to treat school staff, visitors, our school environment, the community and other children with respect at all times. We recognise that it is the right of every child to receive an education without the threat of any kind of bullying, physical or emotional.
We expect our children to move around the school in a polite and courteous manner and trust them to follow our school values in allow them to be ready, respectful and safe. At Carlton Primary School are core values are to be compassionate at all times, we want our children to be kind and think of others, to be creative and collaborative and to take notice and be part of our Christian community,
Each Core Value is subdivided into sub- values, one for each week of each half term . As Carlton is firmly rooted in Christian beliefs these are taken from the Christian values and Christians will be able to link them with the teaching and example of Jesus or other pertinent Bible teaching. We feel these values encompass our school and our pupil’s development. A list of the values we have chosen are below:
Values Assembly
On a Monday, we hold a Values' assembly to introduce and inspire the children at the start of the week. The value is discussed that enabling all children to understand what they will be focussing on and learning throughout the week embodies this. We reinforce this value in our Wednesday assembly where the children are asked how they have been working on the value.
In addition to this, on a Friday the children who have shown they are using the current value are chosen to to be awarded a Value Leaf and this is placed on our Value Tree in the hall for all to see.
Celebrations Assembly
On a Friday, we hold a Celebration Assembly, to celebrate the achievements of the children in the school. Alongside the Values award, each class chooses a child to go into the Golden Book, a class dojo winner (which is part of our behaviour programme), All of these awards are recorded in our Golden Book, which holds pride of place in our front foyer along with a photograph of the achievers for the week. The achievers photographs can also be found on Dojo.
