We have also developed guiding principles that as a school, we aim to promote and prioritise in our educational approach and in the decisions that we make around our students and their learning. These are:
At Northcote Primary School, we value inclusivity as a foundation for creating and maintaining a diverse school community where everyone feels welcomed, safe and respected. We envision a future where all individuals have equal opportunities to not only participate and be engaged but also succeed regardless of their ethnicity, gender, age, or socioeconomic status. We are committed to fostering an inclusive school environment that promotes diversity, equity, and belonging. Our goal is to build a school culture that reflects the richness and potential of all people, and to create a culture that meet the needs and preferences of every individual.
At Northcote Primary School we aim to cultivate a culture of sustainability amongst our students and wider school community that is focused on protecting and conserving the environment. We believe in promoting sustainable practices and are committed to providing our students with the necessary tools and resources to become responsible and ethical global citizens. Our vision is to create a school community that reflects these values, where students are empowered to make meaningful contributions towards environmental sustainability and are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to tackle the critical environmental challenges of today and tomorrow.
Northcote Primary School is committed to fostering creativity, self-expression, and innovation through a combination of art, music, and other forms of artistic expression. We firmly hold the belief that these disciplines are essential to the development of well-rounded, intellectually engaged students. Our commitment extends to ensuring that every student has the opportunity to explore their creativity and cultivate their distinctive artistic perspective. We are dedicated to empowering students to use their creative abilities to make a positive impact on the world, and we believe that the arts are essential to building a vibrant and thriving community.
At Northcote Primary School, we believe technology is an essential component in empowering our students to become successful and engaged global citizens. Our vision is to provide innovative, cutting-edge technologies that will equip our students with the tools necessary to thrive in an ever-changing world. We strive to create a student-centred learning environment that is interactive, collaborative, and inclusive. By leveraging technology in meaningful and impactful ways, we aim to foster creative and critical thinking skills, preparing our students to be leaders in their chosen fields and agents of positive change in society.
At Northcote Primary School our vision is to promote community-mindedness by fostering strong connections and positive relationships within our organisation and with the wider community. Through our inward school facing activities and initiatives, we aim to foster a culture built on respect, collaboration, inclusivity, and everyone working together. Through our outward facing initiatives, we strive to be an integral part of the community, contributing to its ongoing growth and development, and giving back through volunteerism and philanthropy. Together, we aim to create a positive and sustainable impact both within our school and our wider community.
