Aims

The ethos of St Hilary's is embedded in its aims which are:

  • to provide an outstanding, all round education

  • to equip pupils with the qualities and skills required in school and beyond

  • to recognise and utilise all our pupils' talents, whether academic, musical, sporting or other

  • to ensure that all children - whatever their ability - achieve their full potential

  • to develop in our children a real thirst for learning

  • to transmit strong, traditional, moral values based on our school's family ethos

  • to provide a warm, safe and caring environment that enables all children to thrive

We do this by:

  • providing a broad and balanced curriculum with strong subject specialist teaching

  • building in opportunities for independent learning, creativity, problem-solving and use of technology

  • varying and enhancing our curriculum with extra-curricular activities, specialist subject days, visiting speakers, outside visits, workshops, house events and challenges

  • delivering a well-developed PSCHE programme, encouraging staff and older pupils to be role models; providing a buddy system between Years 1 and 5, shared activities between Years 2 and 4 and a paired reading scheme between Years 3 and 6
