Our School Values and Rules

At Ash Green Community Primary School, we aim to make our school a centre of excellence for all. We are here to serve our pupils, their families and the community.

We have established 8 core values which sit under the whole school motto, ‘Learn to Live, Live to Learn!’. These ideals underpin the ethos, environment and culture of our school.

The 8 core values are:

ATTENDANCE MATTERS – Be On Time

SHOW RESPECT – Everyone is Equal

HELP THOSE WHO NEED IT – Be Kind and Helpful

GOOD CONDUCT AROUND SCHOOL – Walk And Talk Sensibly

REMEMBER YOUR MANNERS – They Cost Nothing

ENGAGE IN LEARNING – Try Your Best

EVERYBODY IS DIFFERENT – We Celebrate That

NEVER GIVE UP – Resilience Is Key

It is our aim for pupils at Ash Green to have their passion for learning ignited whilst nurturing their self-belief and well-being. Through our diverse, broad and balanced curriculum - which is ambitious for all - every child will have the opportunity to shine academically, as well as flourish socially, morally, spiritually and culturally.

At Ash Green we strive to:

• Provide the highest standard of education to enable all children to acquire the skills, knowledge and concepts pertinent for their future.
• Promote an ethos of care, mutual respect and support, value and celebrate successes.
• Enable children to become active, responsible and caring members of the school and wider community.
