Our Mission Statement

Pearson Primary School is a community that nurtures and supports every child; that values everyone’s unique worth and contribution; that empowers every member to achieve their fullest potential; that opens up a world of opportunities.

It is a place of safety where firm boundaries guide and support: where high expectations lead to lifelong learning; where care and respect build self-esteem and self-belief.

It is a gateway to limitless possibilities; to soaring aspirations; to brighter futures.

Our Core Values:

At Pearson we value enjoyment and positivity.

We are RESTORATIVE, INCLUSIVE and we are HARD WORKING.

To be RESTORATIVE means to build respectful relationships and to repair harm when harm is done. This requires respect for myself and for others, honesty and the strength to take responsibility for my actions.

To be INCLUSIVE means to value and celebrate individuality and difference. This requires curiosity, empathy and care. We need to develop the courage and commitment to making a positive difference.

To be HARD WORKING means to try our hardest and to be resilient. This requires increasing independence, consistency and a determination to be successful and means we have to learn to try our hardest and to be resilient.
