Our School Ethos

The Governors and staff of Wookey Primary School are dedicated to providing a high standard of education within the context of a small school, whilst at the same time reaping the benefits of a village community. We are very much concerned with the all-round development of each individual child, both academically and socially, and are keen that his or her primary school career should be both enriching and enjoyable.

 

This philosophy is summed up in our school motto ... Together – we learn and grow

 

This statement incorporates three primary aims:

 

  • To work together - to develop a partnership amongst parents, staff, governors, pupils, Somerset Education Services and the local community, in order to provide the most beneficial education for each child;

 

  • To learn effectively - to provide a high quality education for all pupils which will enable them to make optimum progress and achieve maximum success;

 

  • To grow as individuals - to foster the all-round development of each child, not only intellectually, but also spiritually, morally, creatively, physically, and socially

 

In January 2010, the Wookey community of staff, pupils, parents and governors agreed a whole school Golden Rule:

 

‘To work hard and be respectful every day;

To learn and grow together, that’s the Wookey way.’
