SSIS Vision Statement 2018-2021
At St Stephen’s we are committed to enabling children to have the best possible start to their lifelong journey of learning and discovery.
Our Golden Rules help to build positive relationships and nurture every child to make the right choices and to be part of a happy, safe and supportive school.
We strive to meet the needs of all children and to help them recognise and develop their emerging talents.
Our diverse and engaging curriculum promotes outdoor play, curiosity, creativity and independent learning.
We emphasise the importance of trying your best, never giving up and challenging yourself to succeed.
We want all children, staff, parents and carers to have a voice and feel they are valued members of our community.
At St Stephen’s we are a welcoming and inclusive infant school.
