What the school offers its staff
Sutterton Fourfields Church of England Primary School’s vision is based on Christian principles, values and aims: Two travellers are transformed and enriched by sharing their journey with a guide. We view our work to be similar in making a difference to future lives. We travel together on our journey of transformation and commit our school to always being supportive, nurturing and challenging.
As in the gospel story of two travellers who meet and are transformed and enriched by sharing part of their journey with a guide, we view our work with children to be a similar brief opportunity to make a lifelong difference to their future lives.
For part of the children’s life journey, we have the privilege to walk with them. During these fleeting years, we commit to ensuring that every child is enriched, challenged, supported, and developed so that they can be the best that they can be.
We use the strapline, “Small Village, Big Horizons” to articulate our vision for the schools. We want our curriculum to expand the experiences and ambitions of our pupils. We want our pupils to learn about local knowledge alongside national and global information.
We seek to not only provide an environment which promotes achievement in learning but also one of warmth, security and care, valuing each member of the school community and working to encourage the realisation of everyone’s potential.
We celebrate all achievement whether big or small and challenge our children (and ourselves) to improve even more. We encourage a ‘can do’ culture, a thirst for life-long learning and a pride in each other's skills and attributes.
