Baden-Powell and St.Peter's Junior School

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the vibrant and positive community that is Baden-Powell and St. Peter’s Church of England Junior School. Our vision statement encompasses our core purpose: we strive to achieve our very best, so that we may flourish and grow, in a vibrant community of learning with Christ at our side. Our vision is firmly rooted in our attitudes and relationships with one another, with ourselves and with God. Our sense of purpose is embodied in our five core values which permeate throughout school life: Aspiration, Compassion, Friendship, Respect and Resilience. We are hugely proud of our school which is extremely well regarded by the community that it serves. Baden-Powell & St Peter’s is an energetic place of learning, defined by its Christian ethos; a commitment to excellence and a core set of values, which are rooted in everything we do. There is something wonderful in everyone, consequently every child is seen as a unique individual within God’s creation. Our dedicated staff aim to provide a nurturing and caring learning environment where every child is encouraged and supported to achieve their full potential. As a large school, we are able to bring considerable resources to bear and provide your children with a wide and varied range of opportunities and experiences. Our children thrive in an engaging and positive environment where they all have the chance to succeed, develop and grow. Above all, our school is a happy place, the success of which is underpinned by the positive relationships which exist between all members of the school community, adults and children alike. This prospectus, along with the school website, aims to offer you a ‘window’ into life at our school, giving you a real insight into the busy and engaging curriculum as well as the positive Christian ethos of our school; however, nothing is quite the same as visiting in person, which you are warmly encouraged to do. We are always delighted to welcome parents and children to our school as we value the partnership that forms from it. I hope that this prospectus successfully communicates our pursuit of the highest standards in all that we do. Mrs Rachel Rusling “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart.” “The school’s drive for all pupils to achieve their fullest potential has been distilled into a vision and associated set of values which have a distinctively Christian basis.” SIAMS, 2019 COLOSSIANS 3.23 Headteacher
