At Sidcot Junior School, we believe in nurturing well-rounded individuals who are not only academically prepared but also equipped to make a positive impact on the world. We go beyond traditional education, fostering a sense of social responsibility and encouraging students to become active global citizens.
Peace & Global Studies
Our curriculum integrates Peace & Global Studies, providing a platform for children to explore important social and environmental issues. Through thought-provoking discussions, engaging activities, and service-learning projects, students develop:
- Empathy and Compassion for people from all walks of life
- An Understanding of different cultures and perspectives
- The Skills to think critically and solve problems
- A Commitment to building a more peaceful and sustainable world
Empowering Future Leaders
Beyond the classroom, we offer a variety of initiatives that encourage students to think big and Let their Life Speak:
- School Council: Students have a voice in shaping school life, developing leadership skills and taking initiative.
- Charity Fundraising: Children actively participate in fundraising events, fostering a sense of social responsibility and supporting worthy causes.
- Community Outreach Projects: Students engage with the local community, learning the importance of social connection and giving back.
Developing Global Citizens
We provide opportunities for students to connect with their peers from around the world, fostering a sense of global citizenship. These may include:
- International Learning: Students broaden their horizons by interacting with students of different cultures on a daily basis. Senior School boarding students often come to the Junior School to discuss important parts of their heritage and cultures, and share their stories and experiences.
- Cultural Celebrations: We celebrate many international events, from Lunar New Year and Christmas, to Black History Month and Ramadan. These events provide a great opportunity for our students to learn about the world in a fun and interactive way.
