Academy Information
The Fairfield Values
Our curriculum is underpinned by core fundamental values.
These form the basis of everything we do in school.
The Fairfield Four are:
- We ALWAYS aim high
- We ALWAYS have the confidence to try new things
- We ALWAYS value and support each other
- We ALWAYS show good sportsmanship and work as a team
In addition to the values we aim to:
- Encourage each pupil to reach their potential by developing qualities of self-discipline, motivation and commitment.
- Help pupils develop an understanding of their own identity and personal moral values
- Help pupils develop respect and tolerance of other races, religions, cultures and life-styles
- Help pupils to develop lively and enquiring minds, the ability to question and discuss rationally, to investigate and solve problems, and to effectively apply themselves to mental and physical tasks
- Guide pupils to acquire understanding, knowledge and skills relevant to adult life and employment in a fast changing world
- Help pupils gain competence in language, numeracy, information and communication technology skills (ICT), and scientific methodology, so that they can communicate effectively using these skills
- Help pupils understand the world in which they live and the interdependence of individuals, groups and society
- Help pupils to value aspirations and achievement
- Help pupils to understand the importance of developing a social responsibility towards those less fortunate than themselves
