Our vision is for everyone to know that they belong to Templars, and be proud to belong, because we are a school where everyone is welcomed, feels safe to take risks and strives to achieve their full potential.

Our mission ‘Every child, Every day, Every chance’.     Our values Care, Respect and Honesty.

•  We want our children to think, to question, and to wonder

We provide a curriculum both within and beyond the classroom that has been especially created for our own children. It is relevant, progressive, cohesive and exciting.

We support this by providing a rich variety of curricular and extra-curricular activities, which provide both breadth of experience and opportunities for personal/social development.

Our staff plan learning with care and precision. They have the highest aspirations for pupils and children are encouraged to work to the fullest extent of their capabilities in all aspects of the enriched curriculum.

• We want our children to embrace diversity

We  promote equal opportunities for all children – everyone belongs at Templars.

We achieve this by valuing difference. We recognise each child as an individual enabling them to develop personal, spiritual and moral values, an understanding of different beliefs, a tolerance for others and their ways of life.

• We want our children to be kinder, fairer, braver and better people

We encourage self-discipline, self-esteem and self-motivation so that our pupils can grow to become valuable members of society.

An important emphasis is placed upon the child’s personal development and developing a love of learning. High expectations of behaviour, manners and respect are the foundation of our relentless routines.

• We want our children to be healthy, happy and safe at school

We provide a safe, warm and friendly atmosphere for all who learn and work within.

We work to provide an environment both inside and out of the classroom in which children and adults feel both safe, secure and happy, enabling them to develop effectively and reach their potential. In support of this the school and its governors are strongly committed to ensuring the physical and mental health of all pupils and staff and will encourage all to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Templars’ No-Outsiders Statement 

We want Templars to be a place where everyone feels safe. We want to celebrate that everyone is different, and show that everyone is welcome.

We want everyone to know what we think about bullying:

• No-one should be made to feel like an outsider because of their race, colour, gender or ability

• No-one should be made to feel like an outsider by name-calling

• No-one should be made to feel like an outsider by physical bullying

• No-one should be made to feel like an outsider in any way at all

It is everyone’s responsibility to make sure that there are no outsiders at Templars.

‘If there is a problem, we share it’
