Advocacy

We work with a range of charities to support and advocate for others and the environment. Our children develop a sense of responsibility and take on their own projects with causes that are important to them.

“Speak up for people who cannot speak for themselves. Protect the rights of all who are helpless” Proverbs 31:8

 

At St Petroc’s CE Primary School, we are courageous advocates for the common good, locally in Bodmin and Cornwall, nationally and globally. We recognise that life can be challenging and that we need to work together to overcome them.

We ensure that there are opportunities to discuss current world issues, to challenge injustice and to engage in activities that can bring about change are always present. Examples include:

Pupils are articulate advocates of change, challenging injustice and inequality. They have regular opportunities to engage in social action projects which pupils themselves have identified to address issues of disadvantage, deprivation and the exploitation of the natural world.
