Elaine Primary School

School Aims

As well as giving the children a sound grounding in all ten subjects and stretching them to reach their full potential, we also try to instil other values which will support the children both in their academic progress and in their general path through life. We emphasise:-

•the ability to discipline one's self and to accept the rules of the group
•the ability to co-operate on a common task
•the ability to communicate, to listen, explain and debate
•the development of self-confidence and independence
•the considered use of initiative
•an understanding and development of a healthy lifestyle
•the development of manual skills
•the development of logical thinking
•an understanding of, and feeling for, other people
•a feeling of self-worth

We do expect children to attend school in uniform. Sweatshirts or polo shirts with the school logo on are available from the school office, as are baseball caps, school bags and PE tops.
