Ethos and Core Values

Here at Kippax North Primary School, we firmly believe the two most important activities are learning and teaching. Our core values ensure that we are committed to developing:​

Successful, resilient learners​ by recognising and unlocking each individual’s promise and potential. We hope they will enjoy their time at Kippax North, and leave with an active love of learning, as critical thinkers with open and enquiring minds. We celebrate young people’s efforts and successes across the full range of personal, social, academic and extra-curricular activities and experiences we offer.

Responsible citizens​ who engage with their community at local, national and international level with a strong social and environmental conscience.

**Confident, tolerant individuals **​by encouraging high expectations and high aspirations and a sense of pride in, and belonging to, our learning community. Children who respect others’ differences, values and cultures, and have a generosity of spirit. We support and value all who study, work and play here by providing a safe, inclusive and secure environment in which to grow and learn.

A sense of morality and an understanding of what is right and what is wrong, encouraging our students to take responsibility for their actions.

As part of the Brigshaw Learning Partnership we also embrace the following co-operative values:

Self-help​ – helping people to help themselves

Self-responsibility​ – being responsible for our own actions and playing a full part Democracy​ – having an equal say in how things are run

Equality​ – everybody should be treated justly and fairly

Equity​ – all members have an equal right to be informed

Solidarity​ - taking collective responsibility and supporting other co-operatives and ​Honesty, Openness, Social Responsibility, Caring For Others
