What a fantastic time we're having at Upper Batley! It's truly inspiring to see our school community flourish, driven by the dedication of our learners and the unwavering support of our staff. We pride ourselves on fostering a vibrant and engaging culture where every individual is empowered to Believe, Achieve, and ultimately Succeed.

 

Our high expectations are the foundation of this culture. We encourage every learner to be the best version of themselves, instilling a strong work ethic that translates into remarkable progress and academic success. This isn't just about grades; it's about nurturing well-rounded individuals who are eager to learn, grow, and embrace new experiences.

 

Central to our thriving environment is our commitment to excellent behaviour. We believe that a positive and respectful atmosphere is crucial for effective learning. Our robust behaviour system isn't just about managing conduct; it's about actively rewarding and celebrating the positive choices our learners make every single day. We love to acknowledge those who demonstrate a strong work ethic, achieve well, and consistently do the right thing.

 

We proudly recognise and reward learners for a variety of achievements, including:

• Excellent attendance: Being in school consistently is the first step towards success.
• Academic success: Celebrating the hard work that leads to strong results.
• Brilliant progress: Acknowledging the journey of improvement and growth.
• Outstanding attitude towards learning: High achievement points reflect a genuine enthusiasm for education.
• Supporting others: Recognising the importance of kindness and community spirit.

 

Our learners have plenty of opportunities to be rewarded for their efforts. Many are enjoying using their hard-earned achievement points at our Rewards Shop or entering the school raffle for exciting prizes. And, as many of you know, next week a large group of deserving learners will be having an incredible time soaking up the sun at Blackpool Pleasure Beach - a fantastic testament to their dedication and positive contributions to our school.

 

It's moments like these that truly highlight the special culture we have here at Upper Batley. We are incredibly proud of our learners, and we look forward to continuing to Believe, Achieve, and Succeed together.
