Aims Of The School
As a Catholic School, we draw on the shared experience of home, family and parish to underpin a broad and balanced curriculum. In Ballymacward P.S. we strive to:
-
create a happy, safe, secure and effective learning environment where each child has the opportunity to develop physically, intellectually, socially and spiritually and so develop his/her talents to their full potential.
-
Promote respect for self, others and the world around us, both locally and globally.
-
Promote effective learning and set high standards by providing a curriculum designed to meet the child’s individual needs and, at the same time, fulfil the Northern Ireland Curriculum requirements.
-
Create a system whereby staff members may develop professionally in order to facilitate the needs of our pupils.
-
Engage with the wider community to enhance learning.
-
Encourage parents to be active partners in the education of their children.
-
Build up a caring Catholic community within the school which is committed to handing on the faith.
