Statement of values and ethos
Together we care, learn and grow.
our school logo
Following the design of the school logo, staff at Barry Primary School & Nursery developed the logo strapline
“Together we care, learn and grow.”
As with the logo, this has CARE at its heart.
The diversity in the hands is reflected in the word “Together” – it is the school’s link in partnership with our diverse community.
Like the shield, we are stronger together; like the tree, we grow.
Together we care, learn and grow
The key words unpicked:
TOGETHER – our diversity is our strength
WE – inclusive
CARE – our school ethos (right in the middle)
LEARN – to unlock a world of possibilities
GROW – the personal skills needed to succeed

our school ethos
Our school logo was designed with CARE at its heart. Diversity and togetherness are an integral part of our school life and ethos. When the design of the heart, lettering and hands were created, it was the children’s idea to form the tree to represent growth and the golden shield to represent strength.

British Values
We promote in our school the fundamental British Values: democracy; individual liberty; the rule of law; mutual respect; tolerance of those with different faiths and belief. This is done through our assemblies, our PSHE, SMSC and RE curriculum, our school council and our wider modelling of these values through expectations of behaviour from all.
