AIMS AND OBJECTIVES

To ensure that all our children are bilingual by the time they transfer to the secondary sector and have been provided with opportunities to use the Welsh language within a variety of circumstances.

Create opportunities for our children to learn through relevant, direct experiences within a happy, caring atmosphere which motivates learning. We aim to promote purposeful learning in order to develop lively, enquiring minds in our children.

Give due consideration to each individual child's interest and ensure that each pupil derives pleasure through the process of learning, is motivated, is willing to investigate and makes every effort to work independently, is curious and self disciplined. We encourage all children to be aware of their individual talents and to develop these to their full potential in order to become thoughtful individuals.

To develop fully all our children regardless of background and ability by providing differentiated tasks that emanate from the varied teaching experiences. We will also encourage the development of the imagination and reasoning powers.

To prepare each pupil to become a responsible member of society by placing emphasis on values such as honesty, perseverance, respect and tolerance for others and courtesy and the willingness to make an effort and produce their best at all times.

To develop self-confidence in all children and a positive attitude towards work. All people have an important contribution to make and the ability to excel in some fields. We will provide the opportunity of experiencing enjoyment and pleasure whilst successfully completing tasks.
Ensure that all our children are aware of their important contribution to the life of the school, the community and the environment by providing experiences that will nurture this awareness.

To create a strong and close link between teaching staff and parents in order to consolidate the process of learning.

Provide a variety of social activities that will create awareness within the children of their language and their culture and their place in the world and develop their social and communicative skills.
