Our Global Ethos
At MOSPS, we believe that every child has the potential to make a difference. We want our pupils to grow into thoughtful, compassionate and responsible global citizens who understand the world around them and recognise the part they can play in making it a better place.
Through our global learning, we encourage children to be curious, ask questions, celebrate diversity and develop an understanding of different people, places and cultures. We want them to recognise that, although we may live different lives, we are all connected and share a responsibility to care for one another and our planet.
What is Global Learning?
Global learning helps children understand the wider world and their place within it. It encourages them to think critically about global issues, recognise how our actions affect others and understand how they can make a positive difference.
Through learning about different people, places and cultures, we nurture empathy, fairness, respect and a sense of responsibility. We encourage our pupils to look beyond their immediate surroundings, challenge assumptions and consider how they can contribute to a fairer, more sustainable world.
MOSPS is incredibly proud to have achieved the highest level of accreditation in the Christian Aid Global Neighbours scheme. This recognises our commitment to helping pupils understand global poverty and injustice, and the importance of taking action. Our children play an active role in global citizenship, showing leadership and courageous advocacy to help make a difference.
Here are just some of the ways in which MOSPS pupils are Global Citizens…
WE ACT…
We believe that even small actions can make a big difference. Our pupils are encouraged to take action on issues they care about, supporting local, national and global causes through fundraising, awareness-raising and practical activities.
From supporting charities and local community projects to taking action on environmental issues, our children learn that they have a voice and that their actions matter.
WE AIM HIGH…
We are proud of the achievements of our pupils and the recognition our school has received for its commitment to global learning.
Our work through the Christian Aid Global Neighbours scheme celebrates the enthusiasm, compassion and determination of our children. We encourage every pupil to aim high, take pride in their achievements and recognise the positive impact they can have on the world around them.
WE PARTICIPATE…
Global citizenship is not just something we learn about; it is something we put into practice.
Our pupils are actively involved in projects, events and activities that help them understand global issues and take part in creating positive change. Whether contributing to environmental projects, supporting charitable causes or taking part in community events, our children are encouraged to get involved and make their voices heard.
WE BEFRIEND…
We value the friendships and connections we build with people and communities beyond our school.
Through our links with other schools and organisations, our pupils have opportunities to learn about different cultures, share experiences and develop an appreciation of the similarities and differences that make our world so special.
These relationships help children understand the importance of kindness, respect, inclusion and looking out for one another.
WE CHAMPION…
We encourage our pupils to stand up for what they believe in, speak out about issues that matter and champion fairness and equality.
We want our children to feel confident that their voices count and that they can help bring about positive change. By developing courageous advocates, we are nurturing a generation who care about others, respect our planet and are ready to make a difference.
