VISION STATEMENT

Our vision is to ensure each child is given a solid foundation of learning, has a sense of self-confidence and self-belief, and is self-motivated, flexible and cooperative.

MISSION STATEMENT

Anfield is a Catholic school, in an international setting, where all are committed to creating a loving and joy-filled environment that is inspired by Jesus Christ. Anfield is a culturally diverse environment where all children are challenged, both academically and spiritually, to embrace and expand their international connections, enabling them to achieve their full potential and thrive within the global community.

GOALS

  • To encourage the development in all students, the qualities of personal responsibility, consideration, courtesy and respect in their relationships with one another, their teachers, the local and global community and the environment.
  • To work for excellence in all academic, cultural and sporting endeavours, stimulating excitement in learning and requiring discipline in study, whatever the ability of the child.
  • To encourage children to be self-motivated, to strive to do their best in everything they do and to have confidence to take risks.
  • To encourage children in independent and critical thinking about the standards and values in society and the global community, and to discover and develop a personal faith to guide them throughout their lives.
  • To develop in each child a knowledge, understanding and respect for the Catholic faith.
  • To prepare children for their next stage of learning in an internationally-minded environment that encourages high standards of achievement and a life-long love of learning.
  • To provide an environment where everyone in our school community feels safe and is aware of their rights and responsibilities.
  • To continually move forward, through innovation, creativity and endeavour, and to explore the world with its myriad of opportunities and challenges.
