Guest Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I wonder if anyone would be kind enough to share their school's vision statement or share any good ones they know of. We're thinking of changing ours and it would be useful to have some inspiration! Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 (edited) It depends whether you want a child-friendly one or adult one. If you look at school websites there are lots of examples there. Here's a couple to start you off: http://www.st-marys-rc34.lancsngfl.ac.uk/i...?category_id=67 http://www.ican.org.uk/upload/ican%20pdfs/...hautumnpros.pdf Edited December 17, 2006 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Thanks Kermit. You're really good at finding stuff, aren't you? I always think of you as the resident internet search expert ( ) and always like looking at the stuff you find! I take your point about whether it's a child-friendly or adult version that's wanted. I couldn't work out why I didn't much like any of the ones I've found on the internet today and after your comment I think it must be because the ones I've found are very wordy and quite pompous - obviously adult friendly!I did, though, find a site that shows you how to go about creating a vision statement: (link removed by Lauren - site it was linking to has potentially been hacked) Thanks for your help.

Susan Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Hi Moose, cant help much but perhaps you need to consider Whats wrong with the one you have or why do you need to change it? in order to formulate something better? This should be a whole staff job though, shouldnt it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Kermit21 - that website is really really useful, and has certainly got me thinking (not that I ever manage to stop thinking!!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Our vision statement has been in place for a long time - prior to lots of members of staff starting at the school. It is rather wooly and wordy and doesn't reflect the quite profound changes we have made in the last two years. We're going to review our vision statement, as a staff, at our next Inset and thought it might be useful to have some existing ones to inspire us - not to copy I hasten to add!

Guest Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 'We aim to provide a happy, caring and stimulating environment in which everyone has the desire to succeed.' That is our mission statement, written together as a staff and governors. At the same time as we wrote this on the same INSET day we wrote our school aims, we need to change these soon in view of every child matters. liz x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
