Our Ethos
Learn together. Play together. Pray together.
Our Aims:
At Netherseal St. Peter's every child matters, and as such we have high expectations of all members of our school community. We are committed to raising standards and enhancing children's learning by providing a calm, safe, stimulating and challenging environment.
We work together to develop a strong personal sense of morality where pupils make decisions for the right reasons and have the knowledge and skills to make a difference to their own life and the lives of others.
Christian Values and the British Values of democracy, law, individual liberty and mutual respect underpin the ethos of our school.
Your beliefs become your thoughts.
Your thought become your words.
Your words become your actions.
Your actions become your habits.
Your habits become your values.
Your values become your destiny.

Equality
Our Vision Statement about Equality
Netherseal St. Peter's seeks to foster a warm, welcoming and respectful environment, which allows us to challenge discrimination and inequality, resolve conflicts peacefully and work and learn free from harassment and violence.
We recognise that we are all unique. We seek enrichment from our differences and promote understanding between and towards others. We strive to ensure that our differences do not become barriers to participation and learning and to create inclusive processes and practices where everyone can flourish and the varying needs of individuals and groups are identified and met.
Promoting the Protected Characteristics
We work to ensure that our children understand that:
There are no outsiders at our school
Everyone is different
We celebrate our differences
We are all equal in our differences
We take seriously our duties to eliminate discrimination, promote equality of opportunity and foster good relations between people of all backgrounds. This duty is set out in the Equality Act of 2010.
The Equality Act covers everyone in Britain and protects people from discrimination, harassment, and victimisation. Everyone in Britain is protected because of the protected characteristics that we all have. Under the Equality Act, there are nine Protected Characteristics:
1. Age
2. Disability
3. Gender reassignment
4. Race
5. Religion or belief
6. Marriage or civil partnership
7. Sex
8. Sexual orientation
9. Pregnancy and maternity
One of our Year 6 pupils discovered this song. She felt it summed up our inclusive school and it is now a firm favourite – take a look!
Our vision is for everyone to feel a respected, valued member of our school community, where we enjoy our own uniqueness and love our neighbours as ourselves.
We will encourage our pupils to be confident, independent, creative, respectful of difference and realise the impact of their decisions, empowering them to affect social change and be the best person that they can be.
Power. Respect. Independence. Determination. Eco-friendly.
