Anand Primary School a safe, happy and eco-friendly place dedicated to giving your children the best start in life in Wolverhampton

Anand Primary School’s ethos is based on Sikh values. Over the centuries, 3 key tenets have served to remind Sikhs of all their core values.

These tenets are:

Kirat Karau – which means that we should all earn our living through honest means and hard work. We should all take responsibility for ourselves and should never compromise our integrity.

Vandd Shakau – which means that we should share the fruits of our toil with all. We should respect everyone and work in the self-less service of all.

Naam Jappau – which means to keep God in mind at all times. To not waste a second of the time we have on this planet but to use it to become the best that we can be.

These powerful principles translate directly to the 3 major aspects in which we wish every pupil at our school to develop.

The children of Anand Primary School will:
