Dear Parents and carers,
Our vision at the Bourne is to provide a school that the community is proud of. That is what parents and carers, quite rightly, want and expect. Our common purpose is dedicated to help children develop into confident, successful and responsible adults who can play an active part in society, regardless of their background or prior achievement.
Our aim is to fully prepare our students for life beyond school and to ensure their success, during this crucial stage of their learning journey. We work hard to ensure they all make outstanding progress, academically and personally, to build on their self-confidence and self-belief and to develop their gifts and talents to the full. We want them to leave us in five years’ time, as responsible, happy young citizens, equipped and confident to thrive and contribute to the world beyond the Bourne Community College.
We are a UNICEF Rights Respecting school, and we are very proud of our Gold Status. The golden thread throughout the school is based on our RRSA Bourne Identity Charter.
We always place children at the heart of our planning and we pride ourselves on the relationships our staff have with our students, caring for them throughout the time they are with us. All of our work is founded on simple principles and a positive approach towards education, with respect at the heart of our work.
To achieve this we employ, retain and develop the best possible staff who also believe that every student can do their best given a chance and encouragement. In addition, we strive to deliver a first-class education based on high quality teaching, support and experiences both in and outside of the classroom. We believe that success should be measured both by academic progress and achievement, and also by one’s personal and social development and contribution to our community and to society. We also work closely with families to ensure that all our students are committed to learning and develop the character necessary to take advantage of all the opportunities we provide.
We hope you will also enjoy our films to give you a flavour of our wonderful school and our students.
Kind regards,
Aparna Sharma
Head teacher
