Our Vision & Mission
Here at St John Boste we have a wonderfully supportive, nurturing and inclusive ethos, ensuring that every pupil in our school is treated as the individual they are and encouraged to be the best they can be.
As such our pupils are kind and caring, they are well behaved and respectful to all, and they work hard to achieve success for themselves and for others.
Our Vision
Our vision recognises the uniqueness of each person. Our children themselves have captured the essence of our vision in their shared Vision Statement:
Each One of Us is God’s Work of Art! (Ephesian’s 2:10)
At St John Boste School we are one big happy family, always trying to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.
We learn, grow and develop together, knowing that Jesus is always at our side. We work hard to be the best young people we can be.
We will always try our best and be proud of the efforts and achievements of ourselves and of others.
Our Growth mindset helps us to persevere and learn from our mistakes.
We care for God’s world and help protect it for future generations.
We love, care for andrespect others, sharing our talents, gifts and kindness, to help make the world a happy place to live in for everyone.
Our Mission
We aim to provide a safe, happy, enthusiastic and Christ-centred community in which children can learn and be valued as individuals. We will provide a broad, well-balanced and stimulating curriculum which places high importance on literacy and numeracy, setting aspirational targets for all pupils, whilst nurturing and developing talent across all areas of learning. We will rigorously monitor progress to ensure our pupils achieve their potential, and ensure support is given to pupils and families whenever there is a need.
We firmly believe that through working together with our families we can provide the best opportunities for all of our children, and highly value the support and engagement of our families throughout their child’s time in our school. By providing an environment where children feel cared for, valued, safe and secure, we are ensuring that they are in the best position to learn and achieve success.
Our school community will work together to encourage our pupils to:
Value the teachings of the Catholic faith and live in the way Christ taught us, whilst showing an awareness of, and respect for other races, creeds and religions
