Values and vision
Rosary Catholic Primary School believes teachers need strong subject knowledge and, like pupils, need to be keen to learn new things. It believes good teaching and learning will only take place in a classroom where a culture of error has been created: an environment in which mistakes are celebrated and acknowledged as the way pupils learn. Teachers at Rosary Catholic Primary School therefore consider the most powerful weapon in their teaching armoury to be the phrase "good mistake". They plan for good mistakes and seize upon the teachable moments that arise from them.
Ofsted report
“Teachers inspire and motivate pupils to do their best and they ensure that the differing needs are met well in most lessons. Disabled pupils and those with special educational needs are given good support both in and out of lessons and newly arrived pupils who speak languages other than English are very well catered for. Pupils’ positive attitudes and good behaviour contribute greatly to their good learning in lessons. They work hard, are polite and courteous, and thoroughly enjoy school.”
