At Little Stoke Primary School, we pride ourselves on creating a happy, stimulating, and calm learning environment that fosters the development of self-confidence and good relationships. Our aim is to help children achieve high standards academically and socially, while also broadening their life experiences and cultural awareness.
As a purposeful learning community, we believe in the importance of developing learning skills, understanding, and awareness. We expect high levels of achievement from everyone and encourage an attitude of hard work and responsibility. We aim to identify learning needs effectively and support individuals well, standing alongside children as they develop.
We believe that everyone has the potential to dream, plan, and achieve, and we strive to create an inclusive and tolerant learning environment that allows children to make mistakes and learn from them. We want our children to have high aspirations in life and be open-minded to the way their lives may change and develop.
We value the relationships we have with our parents and recognize that effective partnerships are essential. We work closely with families to ensure the school's aims are met, providing high levels of care, pastoral support, advice, and guidance.

We believe that ability is not a fixed concept and that it can be encouraged and developed. We recognize that every child is unique and deserves to be treated as an individual. We strive to create a learning environment that reflects this philosophy and allows children to reach their full potential.
Our approach to behaviour management focuses on developing self-awareness, responsibility, and citizenship. We believe in the importance of self-expression and the ability to form opinions, socialize, and communicate effectively.
