Our Beliefs about Learners
and Learning
We believe that all pupils in Cross and Passion College have worth, dignity
and value and will learn best when they believe they can and have self-respect, self-esteem and confidence. We believe that every pupil has the potential to learn, achieve and make progress and that every lesson is important and pupils are expected to participate fully.
We know that pupils have different learning styles, strengths, abilities and
aptitudes. Because of this we plan activities which will promote
success for all and we have high expectations of our pupils in all learning situations.
As teachers, we regard ourselves as highly professional and
committed to self-evaluation, to sharing good practice and our own professional development. In our everyday work we will:
·
Strive to create a school community where each individual
feels valued, worthwhile and respected;
·
Encourage all members of the school community to witness
Gospel values in their actions and dealings with others;
·
Provide opportunities for individual and community worship,
·
Provide Religious Education programmes for pupils at all key
stages;
·
Provide opportunities for pupils to actively participate in
social justice campaigns at both local and global level;
·
Encourage participation in activities which promote respect
for diversity and mutual understanding.
