Student Exit Profile Rap

 

When you’re eleven and you leave our school,

Achieve all these and you’ll be really cool

 

Yes, these are the things you need to know,

So try to achieve them before you go

 

Sew on a button, be able to cook,

Write a business plan and enjoy a book

 

Win our merit badge at least 4 times,

Act in a play and remember your lines

 

Please don’t worry if ever you lose,

Smile and be happy – don’t blow a fuse

 

Speak a little Spanish, enjoy a swim,

Hola!, adios, just throw yourself in

 

Use your manners – say please and thank you,

Try your best in everything you do

 

Play a small tune on an instrument,

Speak loud and clear – be confident

 

Yes all of these mean you’ll leave our school,

Caring, loyal and extremely cool

 

Don’t make do with second best,

Reach for the stars with energy and zest!

We hope you will agree that if every child leaves our school with these achievements we will be sending excellent ‘citizens’ to secondary school, fully ready for their journey through to further education and life in general.

The majority of our children achieve these goals by the time they leave our school at the end of year 6. This means they are “secondary ready”, not just academically but in all other aspects of their development.
