From the Towngate Primary Academy
Our Academy's mission is to foster moral character, self-confidence, and a passion for lifelong study.
Teaching students essential values, which we share with staff, kids, and the larger community, is at the heart of everything we do.
These founding ideas guide our curriculum's values-based instruction.
We can create a cohesive, peaceful community by relying on trust, understanding, and consideration.
Every day, in every way, each of us aspires to live by these Towngate ideals and to encourage others to do the same.
Values-based Education is a method of instruction that incorporates values.
Values-based Education (VbE) is genuinely transformative because it gives the school community as a whole a framework for a positive attitude.
It directly affects every aspect of the curriculum, especially PSHE and the teaching of British values as well as the development of spiritual, moral, social, and cultural (SMSC) values.
All Towngate students are taught how values guide everything the academy does. This provides a meaningful context for British Values and SMSC and helps students comprehend how these values shape our society.
Being a values-based institution, we make sure that British Values are taught, discussed, and upheld through the larger values-based philosophy that permeates the school's ethos and activities.
The abilities and qualities acquired via the teaching of values improve the curriculum and the ways in which students learn, as well as attendance, achievement, and student wellbeing.
At Towngate Primary Academy, we adhere to a two-year cycle that was especially created to fit the needs of our students.
Every month, the entire school focuses on a different value.
The Academy's weekly bulletin contains the value for the current month.
