• Fostering a welcoming, safe, organised environment where all children, families and all other members of our school community are treated with tolerance, kindness and respect.

Buckingham Primary School encourages perseverance by:

• Building upon individual strengths and talents.
• Developing children’s self-respect and pride in themselves so that both achievement and perseverance are recognised and celebrated.
• Valuing independence, developing a deeper level of learning and providing a curriculum which enables our pupils to become active citizens of the future.
• Striving to be an integral part of our local community by building and joining communities locally and beyond.

Buckingham Primary School enables everyone to succeed by:

• Delivering excellent education by providing a stimulating, rich and relevant curriculum which balances the rigorous teaching of core skills and knowledge with creative and imaginative opportunities.

• Instilling a love of learning inspired by quality teaching.
• Becoming a centre for excellent teachers, where quality leadership is extended to professionals in other schools and where the staff are committed to their own learning journey and the sharing of quality practice.
• Ensuring that every member of staff (teaching, support and administrative) is fully aware of their role in contributing to the continuing improvements in the performance of the school and to be committed to contributing personally to those improvements.
