Values and Ethos

Our purpose is to provide a caring learning environment with high standards and expectations, where your child will grow into a responsible, resilient, independent learner. Our school ethos is firmly rooted in our values, as set out in our mission statement, so that our children will ‘Aim High, Together We Will Fly’. We believe firmly in close co-operation between home and school, where parents share our aspirations and expectations for their children and support our community. We are proud of our school and the job that we do and we value highly your support as partners in the educational process.

Our vision for Lostock Primary School is to continue to provide an exceptional education for all children, making a transformational
difference to pupils’ learning, development and well-being.

The school’s curriculum intent and implementation are embedded securely and consistently across the school, which makes full use of the exceptional
facilities and enables all children, regardless of their learning styles, abilities and background, to participate fully and achieve their personal
best. Pupils’ work across the curriculum is consistently of a high quality. Each child thrives in a safe, continuously improving and varied
learning environment. The curriculum also equips children with the knowledge and skills to keep themselves safe, make responsible choices and
grow into confident citizens in an ever-changing world.

Children are challenged and become active, independent, reflective learners, who enjoy their time as part of the Lostock family and will leave
as confident and resilient individuals, well equipped to participate fully in the next stage of their education, who can flourish and make a
difference in our world. They develop a thirst for knowledge and an awareness of their rights and responsibilities, including respect and
concern for others and their diversity.

The school is led by an exceptional team who believe that every child deserves an outstanding education and that this can only be achieved in
partnership with all stakeholders. Parents are actively involved in their child’s learning and all staff, teaching and non-teaching, through example
and opportunities for continuous learning, become exemplary practitioners, who feel valued as part of an exceptional school.
