Our School Ethos and Values
Building Futures with Love
We want to be a group of schools which enable each child and adult to flourish and be the architect of their own future which is rooted in love.
We have chosen love as our cornerstone value because when asked, ‘which is the greatest commandment?’ Jesus answered, ‘love the Lord Your God with all you heart, with all your mind, and love your neighbour as yourself’.
(Matthew 22:36-40)
Admissions Arrangements
Barton C of E Primary School is part of the Dales Academies Trust and is located in North Yorkshire. Children are admitted into school in accordance with North Yorkshire County Council admissions arrangements which are published on the North Yorkshire County Council website.
For In Year applications for admissions (those within the school year) can be made directly to the school.
Excellent pupil attendance and punctuality are essential for children to achieve the highest standards of which they are capable. In order for children to achieve their potential, pupils must be highly motivated to learn and keen and eager to attend school. Regular, punctual attendance will establish good habits that will support them throughout their lives.

Behaviour Policy
We believe that a child cannot learn effectively unless they feel secure, successful and happy. We believe all children have a right to: learn and to make demonstrable progress, feel physically and emotionally safe at all times, be treated with respect and dignity at all times and express their feelings in an appropriate way.
We teach that responsibilities are linked to rights: all people in our school communities are responsible for their own behaviour. Nobody makes us behave badly; we choose how to respond. However, we accept that behaviour is not always driven by choice and where needed we will give differentiated support.

Charging and Remissions Policy
The education we provide wholly or mainly during school hours will be free, but on some occasions a voluntary contribution towards the cost of an activity may be requested by the school. Parents are free to decide whether or not to contribute. This policy sets out the principles upon which the school will operate charges and remissions.

Relationships and Sex Education Policy (RSA)
RSE and PSHE is about the emotional, social and cultural development of pupils, and involves learning about healthy lifestyles, positive relationships with others, sexuality, the changes experienced when growing up, diversity and personal identity. RSE and PSHE involves a
combination of sharing information, and exploring issues and values. It involves keeping children safe both on and off-line. It enables pupils to explore their own and other’s attitudes and values and builds their self-esteem and confidence to view their own sexuality positively.
RSE is not about the promotion of sexual activity. To read the policy, click here.
