Ethos and Values

At Blessed Dominic, all are valued, all can achieve and all are loved. We have high expectations of each member of our school community and are committed to our school mission. We pride ourselves on our welcoming Catholic ethos, founded on the teachings of Jesus.

Blessed Dominic Catholic Primary School aims to unite school, home and parish as a Christian community, in which every individual is valued and respected.

We promote education for life, developing the academic, spiritual, emotional, social and physical potential of all the children in our care. 

With the love of Jesus we will grow in faith together.

LOVE – LEARN – BELIEVE

We aim to provide within our Catholic ethos:

• A place where Jesus is a constant presence in our lives
• Quality teaching and learning experiences, with high expectations of all staff and pupils.
• The skills to equip pupils to become independent learners
• Equality of opportunity for all to have full access to a broad and balanced curriculum
• Celebrate individual and collective achievements
• A place where everyone feels valued and respected as members of a community
• An environment in which high standards of behaviour, self-discipline and showing respect for the rights and views of others is everyday practice
• A school where parents and staff feel supported in their roles.

Attendance

Attendance has a direct impact on your child's education. It is extremely important that your child arrives at school on time to start the school day, Whenever possible please make medical appointments outside of school hours, as any time missed can be detrimental to teaching and learning. It is also important that your child is collected on time at the end of the school day, or after school clubs.

Absence
The School operates a 'First Day Response' system. Please contact the school office on the first day of your child's absence to inform us why your child is not at school. We ask that you co-operate with us by not booking holidays during term time. Persistent unauthorised absences will be 
investigated by the Barnet Educational Welfare Officer.

School Uniform
The school uniform is an integral part of who we are at Blessed Dominic Catholic Primary School. All pupis are expected to wear the correct full school uniform every day. You will be able to purchase school uniforms from the office on a Tuesday and Thursday morning 9.00am - 11.30am 
Please see letters and order forms on our letter page.
