School Vision & Aims

Vision

As a catholic primary school, Roan St. Patrick's aims to provide its pupils with the best education possible in a happy and caring environment, where every child can feel secure, valued and respected as an individual. We have a clear message for all our children; ‘déan do dícheall’ meaning ‘do your best’.  Everyone involved with the school - pupils, teachers, staff, parents and governors will have a voice, and everyone will be listened to.

Aims:

  • We welcome children from all backgrounds into our school, to partake fully in school life, make friends and settle in. We aim to do this in a way which reflects the talents, gifts and dignity of everyone in the school community.
  • We maintain a clean, attractive and welcoming school. Children will be encouraged to maintain an organised school, developing a respect for their own and others property.
  • Children will be encouraged to form their own opinions, make decisions, get involved and understand the impact their own and other’s actions have on the environment.
  • We foster behaviour which enables children to have respect for themselves and others and to act responsibly with an awareness of boundaries.
  • We seek high standards of educational achievement from our children and high standards of professionalism from our staff.
  • The children should be interested in their activities and be well motivated due to effective teacher planning and delivery.
  • We promote a strong community spirit with parents recognising that they have important contributions to make in their child’s education. They should feel supported in their concerns and recognise the school as a place which is open and receptive of their needs.
  • We aim for effective communication between children, staff, parents and governors, which will provide a sound basis for working and learning together.
