At Crawfordsburn Primary School we believe in the importance of learning to care for others, ourselves and the world around us. When we feel cared for, we feel safe and ready to take risks in our learning and are more prepared to creatively approach subjects across the curriculum. Through celebrating success and providing opportunities to be actively involved in school life, we develop our children’s confidence and prepare them to positively contribute to the world they live in as caring, creative and confident individuals.
At Crawfordsburn Primary School we have a strong family ethos. We care deeply about all the members of our school and local community. Children are taught to care for themselves, others and the world around them in a friendly, nurturing and encouraging environment.
We celebrate and develop creativity within our school on a daily basis. Children are encouraged to be independent problem-solvers, and we actively promote the development of creativity through all areas of the curriculum. We recognise, reward and celebrate the achievements of pupils, from both inside and outside the classroom.
Through feeling and celebrating success in learning, our children develop their confidence and self-esteem. We provide relevant, forward-looking learning opportunities and encourage our pupils to be actively involved in school life through many roles that enable them to share their voice. Our pupils are encouraged to have high aspirations and are given opportunities to develop skills that they will carry with them into later life.
