Personal Development

Lilycroft Personal Development Values
Intention 1: Develop our children as learners (ambitious, independent)
We strive to ensure that our children’s attainment in core and curriculum subjects is in line with or exceeding their potential when we consider the varied starting points of children.  We measure this carefully using a range of materials, but always considering Age Related Expectations.  The intended impact is that children will be academically and physically prepared for life in secondary school and in Modern Britain and the world.

Intention 2: Develop the character of our children (tolerant, responsible)
The impact will be that our learners will have fully rounded characters with a clear understanding of complex values like equality, friendship, trust and many others.  Only by really learning what these mean will our learners be able to develop a character that prepares them for living in the community demonstrating tolerance and equality.  We measure this not just by the work our children produce, but in the behaviours we see each and every day in all learners on the playground, in corridors, and in the many roles we give them. The impact of this intention is seen in the daily interaction of all members of our community, including staff and children.

Intention 3: Develop behaviours and habits to become effective learners (co-operative, resilient)
The impact we intend to achieve by developing this intention is seen by how the children approach challenges every day.  This could be on the playground, in a game or disagreement, or in class in a complex learning challenge.  The impact should be that children don’t give up, are highly motivated to succeed and achieve and are equipped with all the personal skills to do this.

Intention 4: Develop the moral compass of our children (empathetic, honest)
Our learners will be motivated by a strong personal sense of morality.  They will make decisions for the right reasons and in the best interests of their community.  They will be able to decide what is right and what is wrong, and will be resilient to the influence of others.  They will go out into the world and make a difference in their own life and to others.  Our learners will be the owners of their own destinies.
