At Bure Valley School, we are proud to be a part of the Norfolk County Council’s Flourish initiative. As a maintained junior school, we have made a pledge to help the children in our care, and the young people of Norfolk, flourish and reach their full potential.
Our Flourish Pledge
Our pledge is a promise and a commitment to involve our pupils in the decision-making process at our school and to champion their voices. Over the next year, we will focus on further developing our pupil voice initiatives to ensure that our children have a say in shaping their educational experience.
To achieve this, we will:
- Hold full school elections for a student council
- Set up pupil/governor links with the Aylsham Learning Federation Governing Board
- Form a working group of pupils and staff to look into SEND provision and support
- Utilise pupils in the creation of our BVS Horizons Programme – a range of experiences for our children to experience and achieve across their time at Bure Valley
By participating in the Flourish Pledge, we are joining other organisations around Norfolk in:
- Improving the lives of children and young people
- Raising the profile of our school and the work we do
- Making our school and Norfolk a better place for our young people and their families
Upholding Our Vision and Values
At Bure Valley School, we promote and live our co-operative and ethical values, which provide the framework for our school culture to thrive. Firm in our belief that children come first, we strive to ensure that all pupils feel safe, well-cared for, and empowered to achieve success and excellence.
Our vision to promote ‘Care, Creativity & Challenge’ is reflected in our Flourish Pledge, as we work to involve our pupils in decision-making and provide them with diverse experiences to support their growth and development.
By making this pledge and involving our pupils in meaningful ways, we are taking concrete steps to realise our vision and uphold the values that are at the heart of our school community.
