South Moreton School: The World For OUr CHildren, Our CHildren For The World
The South Moreton vision was inspired by the input from the whole-school community - pupils, parents, staff and governors - through the South Moreton: Your School, Your Future project. It showcases and focuses our commitment to developing our school for the future. Please see how our vision is reflected in our curriculum and other learning opportunities via the Curriculum tab in the main menu above.
"The World for our Children, our Children for the World"
Our Ethos:
South Moreton is a dynamic, harmonious and progressive school for all children within our Community. We are passionate about helping them to acquire the skills and knowledge they will need for successful, happy and positive futures as global citizens in the world of tomorrow.
The learning opportunities we provide encourage cooperation and embolden independence so that challenges are met with enthusiasm and resilience. Our children become confident learners who take pride in their achievements and aspire to excellence.
Our school is a welcoming environment with a high level of community and parental involvement where children learn to respect the rights of others and take responsibility for their own future.
Our Vision:
“The World for our Children, Our Children for the World” demonstrates our commitment to providing the very best for each and every one of our pupils, so that they can begin to carve their journey into the future with a sound foundation of skills and knowledge.
We aim to do this through three main commitments, which underpin our work and our ethos:
