John Bramston Primary School

   I would like to extend a warm welcome to all the children, their parents and carers, families, friends, staff, governors and members of the local community who are central to the life of John Bramston Primary school. We are very proud to be a UNICEF Rights Respecting GOLD School upholding the conventions 42 Articles, and achieving re-accreditation (December 2022) GOLD Schools Mental Health Award, we ensure pupils wellbeing is prioritised and central to all we do. This ethos underpins all practice at John Bramston. Partnership with families and adherance to expectations is essential.

   The school abides by the Core values of : Aspiration & Achievement, Creativity & Enjoyment and Respect & Responsibility which make our school a happy and harmonious place to learn and work. 

   Our prospectus cites: "We believe that children can develop responsibility, with respect for themselves and each other, thus creating a community that has values and attitudes that will stand them in good stead for the rest of their lives".

   We hope that children will learn a great deal whilst they are with us, that they are happy and that they learn to enjoy learning. We uphold our actions from Article 3: Working towards what is best for each child. 

   John Bramston is a community of learners.  Our approach to learning is a Person Centred Approach, encompassing the needs of the whole child, adopting 'Learning Without Limits'  challenges.  We encourage caring relationships which are based on respect, understanding and awareness of diversity. Through 'Character Education', 'Growth Mindset' (Can do attitude) and Metacognition Styles of Learning, our approaches  enable children to develop as successful citizens of the future. We hope that children will learn a great deal whilst they are with us, that they are happy and that they learn to enjoy learning.
