Paxton encourages student input, so we question the students about their learning, their worries, and their suggestions for how we may improve things for them.
On admission and throughout the school year, students are made aware of our high expectations for behaviour.
Students gain knowledge of the value of rules and how they connect to laws.
Our kids have a strong sense of right and wrong.
Our kids learn about their obligation to be law-abiding citizens by being fully immersed in the school's ethos.
Our behaviour guidelines are based on the idea that kids are in charge of their own decisions and actions, and those decisions and actions have repercussions.
At the school, safety is ingrained in every facet of existence.
Since our academy is a varied society, we urge our students to recognise and comprehend other faiths by promoting knowledge of them through the national curriculum.
We use assemblies to bring up and address issues of discrimination and bullying as well as to reinforce what students learn in class.
At Paxton, we actively confront students, parents, and staff members who express viewpoints in opposition to core British Values, especially extreme ones.
Religious, Moral, and Spiritual Education: This topic covers the major faiths represented in the UK and helps students gain a better knowledge of religious variety and traditions.
The Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE) Croydon Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education guides subject planning.
Every youngster has the chance to visit prominent places of worship for various religions.
Paxton Academy actively supports diversity by hosting events that honour other religions and cultures.
Physical Education: Promoting the ideas of fair play, developing and adhering to rules, inclusivity, celebrating and rewarding success, being gracious in defeat, and taking part in activities that foster kinship and group attachment.
Key to this is the concept of holding others to account, including those in positions of influence and authority.
Visits for education: Our broad range of educational visits and experiences outside of the classroom equip our children with the skills to make a positive contribution to their community as equal citizens, as well as being able to look at British heritage in more depth.
Additionally, through planned activities, we encourage our students to interact with students from other schools, both nearby and elsewhere.
