Our Vision and Values

We aim to nurture happy, confident, caring pupils who enjoy positive relationships and show compassion and respect for others. 

We want students to grow as individuals, to feel valued and to forge a strong and supportive community. 

We hope they will demonstrate a growing awareness about the choices they make and the impact these have on their environment. 

We want to develop hardworking, independent learners and creative thinkers. 

Our pupils will be encouraged to take full advantage of opportunities and to aspire to the highest standards. 

We aim for our pupils to be inquisitive, ambitious and motivated in their approach to learning. 

We want them to grow in independence, to be reflective in their thinking, to be eager for challenges and to be resilient enough to be able to cope with setbacks. 

At JCP we aim to achieve quality and excellence in every aspect of school life. Our aspiration for all our students lies at the heart of our core values: Aspire, Inquire, Excel and Belong.

We encourage pupils to “live” these values in our daily interactions: 

  • aspiring to high standards of achievement 
  • valuing curiosity and learning through inquiry 
  • recognising and celebrating personal excellence 
  • building a strong community to which we all feel a sense of belonging


In our pursuit of excellence we aim to provide our students with engaging, dynamic learning experiences and continually review the strategies we use for promoting and monitoring the quality of teaching and learning and the attainment of our students. It is our objective to ensure that each child achieves his or her full potential at each stage of development. We welcome the support and involvement of parents and we believe it is essential to keep parents fully and clearly informed about the progress of their children.
