SCHOOL AIMS

At RDM we seek to provide a relevant education for all our pupils as a Green Flag school with Health Promoting Status and taking account of national and local developments, including the Curriculum for Excellence guidelines. As a result throughout nursery and primary schooling at RDM we aim to:

1. provide a healthy, happy and safe environment for all in which pupils can develop at an appropriate pace and in which their individuality is valued.
2. foster a school ethos that is conducive to effective learning and teaching which will consistently nurture each child's development and health: emotionally, culturally, socially, physically and spiritually as well as academically.
3. encourage all children to achieve their potential as independent, self-disciplined individuals, equipped with a sound basis of life skills required for their future, utilising a wide range of media and providing a good foundation in all areas of the curriculum.
4. encourage all children to be socially well equipped, able to share, respect themselves and others, to be tolerant, considerate, polite, co-operative and honest.
5. work in partnership with parents, other professionals and the local community in identifying and providing for the varying needs of all children within our care.
