‘Always do your best
and be your best’

Burlington Infants School – Mission Statement

Our School Motto:
‘Always do your best and be your best’

Our School Vision:

To be the best school we can be, doing the very best we can for every child,  with:

Children who are the best they can be and who are; happy, safe, cared for and nurtured, supported, challenged and given every opportunity to achieve their potential so that they are well prepared for the next stage of their education and to take an active part in our local community.

Staff who are the best they can be; recruited with belief in the vision, dedicated to serving our community, valued, supported, positive, caring individuals, committed to continuous professional development with high expectations and an understanding of teaching a broad, balanced and inclusive curriculum, preparing children for the future.

Parents and carers who are the best they can be and who are; welcomed, valued partners, encouraged to contribute their thoughts and ideas, supportive of the vision and integral to the life of the school.

Governors who are the best they can be and who are; enthusiastic, dedicated and ambitious, committed to sustaining and improving achievement, able to promote, challenge and hold the school to account and who are fully involved in setting the strategic direction of the school.

We are a happy, caring, welcoming and friendly school. This is the result of everyone working closely together, as a whole school team, to take shared responsibility for implementing the vision of our school in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for the children.
