Cultural Capital
At Blowers Green Primary, we believe that every child deserves a rich and fulfilling educational experience that extends beyond the classroom. Our 11 by 11 Pledge is a commitment to providing all our pupils with eleven inspiring cultural experiences by the age of eleven, ensuring they develop the cultural capital needed to thrive in life. Cultural capital refers to the essential knowledge, skills, and experiences that help young learners navigate the world with confidence. By exposing children to museums, theatre performances, musical opportunities, historical sites, and artistic expression, we broaden their horizons, ignite their curiosity, and inspire lifelong learning.

At Blowers Green Primary School, we place equal importance on both academic achievement and personal growth, recognising that children truly flourish when both areas are nurtured. Personal potential is about enabling every child to become even more than they ever believed possible—helping them to discover who they are, what they enjoy, and what motivates them. It is centred on developing character, nurturing interests and passions, and supporting pupils to recognise that success can take many different forms. When children find what inspires them, they begin to see the wide world of opportunities waiting for them.
To support this, our 11 by 11 promise ensures that every child experiences 11 exceptional, memorable and enriching opportunities during their time at Blowers Green. These experiences help pupils develop confidence, curiosity and cultural awareness, giving them a broader understanding of the world and encouraging them to aspire beyond what they already know. Through our 11 by 11 offer, we aim to open doors, ignite passions and support children in building the foundations for both their personal and academic futures.
