Our Vision and Values

 

vision for primary school

It is our belief that children enrolled via the Bilingual programme are fully immersed in both languages. We have a strong belief that one system is not better than the other. A shared approach means our staff are open minded and keen to learn from each other and new ways of working. The desire to choose the best from each system and intertwine into our joint curriculum and pedagogy means that what we offer is bespoke and collaborative

By giving children a unique experience that values the best of our two school systems, our two cultures, we want to instill a spirit of exchange and openness to the world. We want every child to question established patterns and the status quo, reflect on their role within their community, and engage on a path of enlightened citizenship. We want our pupils to be proud of their journey at The Fulham Bilingual and become ambassadors of the world.

We believe in bringing joy to the classroom everyday, we expect our children to work hard. Striving for the children to leave the school secondary ready, staff work tirelessly to ensure the children are working at the expected standard in both languages and can go on to choose a secondary school of their choice: English or French.
