Our Vision Statement

Care, Learn, Achieve

At Boothstown Methodist, we are committed to creating an environment and culture where all children and adults care for each other, learn (academically, socially and spiritually) and achieve success in all its forms.

Care This is the word that has to appear first in our Vision Statement as we all recognise that we need to take care of a child's personal needs as a priority.  We aim to gain children's trust to enable us to understand them as individuals and respect their opinions.  A safe and stimulating physical environment is essential in supporting this.  We aim to encourage all pupils to care for each other in the same way and become responsible citizens in our community.

Only when children feel safe, happy and secure are they in a position to access the education on offer.

Learn We strive to deliver a curriculum that inspires pupils to learn whilst developing essential skills and knowledge for their future.  We fully endorse the value of active learning, especially that beyond the classroom, to help support children in their understanding of the subject, to develop a richer understanding, empathy, tolerance and first hand experience.  Adults in school are committed to continual professional development.

Achieve All the staff in our school are acutely aware of the need for children to experience success and to be proud of their achievements, in whatever aspect of school life that may be.  Our curriculum is adapted as necessary to ensure that all pupils receive the support and challenge that they require to achieve their potential and to widely celebrate these achievements.

Our Mission Statement

"Do All The Good We Can"

We take inspiration from the words of John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, and have a mission to

“Do All The Good We Can”

“Do all the good you can, By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can, In all the places you can,
At all the times you can, To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.”

This is underpinned by our values-led curriculum.  These values guide our thinking and actions. 

We work together and support each other as a Community, to continually try to improve and develop a sense of responsibility:

• To have Compassion, Courage and Wisdom. 
• To develop Friendships and display Forgiveness. 
• To take pride in offering Generosity and Service towards others. 
• To act with integrity and be truthful at all times, showing Respect and tolerance.  Valuing and accepting differences with courtesy and consideration
• To always pursue Excellence.

This Values-led approach supports our children to also lead a ‘Methodist Way of Life’.
