Our RESPECT Values

Our RESPECT Values are at the heart of everything we do at Bottesford CE Primary School.  Everyone within our diverse school community is treated equally and provided with the opportunity to reach their full potential. They are supported to grow, flourish and achieve. We encourage our children to aspire, aim high and ‘be their best selves’.  As the children leave our school, they take with them the values that will enable them to become well-rounded and successful citizens in our world.

Our values are in action throughout our school community. They are both explicitly taught and interwoven into our everyday learning and school experiences.

R

Resilience: We are resilient. We believe that the more resilient a person is, the less they experience stress as they are equipped to deal with life's pressures. Building resilience helps children to overcome obstacles more easily.

E

Excellence: We strive to become our best selves and reach our potential as learners and responsible citizens of the future. We believe in setting high aspirations, working hard and achieving great success.

S

Self-belief: Self-belief will bring happiness and joy to our lives. The more self-confident we are, the happier we are with ourselves and the more we will enjoy what life has to offer. When confidence is high, we can accept, adapt, learn, gain, and benefit from any situation in life.

P

Perseverance: We believe perseverance is very important to develop because life is full of challenges. It is what helps us get through the difficulties to get to what we want to achieve. We believe it is the act or power of continuing to do something in spite of difficulties.

E

Equality: We recognise and respond fairly to the individual needs and identities of all others. We provide everyone with an opportunity to reach their full potential and have an equal chance to live their life as they choose. We value and promote diversity within our learning community.

C

Courage: Courage involves making good choices in the face of fear or obstacles. It is another term for bravery. Bravery does not mean fearlessness. It means we do not let fear hold us back from exploring new opportunities, taking on new roles and responsibilities, developing our skills, and doing what is right.

T

Trust: We believe that trust is important in developing integrity and in building the importance of honouring our commitments in life. Developing trust in relationships builds confidence, commitment and a sense of safety and security within our community.
