Ethos and Values
Encourage each other to do well
Mission Statement
We want all of our children to love coming to school and to find things that excite their curiosity and inspire them to learn, grow and develop as kind, responsible and confident individuals every single day!
Our Aims are aspirational and reflect the outstanding outcomes and provision we are aiming to achieve in all areas of learning and development. We place great importance on Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural education and these themes are reflected in our Values and woven into every aspect of school life as we believe that our responsibility is that of educating the whole child and that academic achievement sits within that bigger picture.
The vision we have for our children is that they will become enthusiastic and happy lifelong learners who are curious and caring about the world around them, kind, respectful and inclusive in their relationships and attitudes and confident and proud of their skills and achievements. We want them to be resilient and determined in the face of challenges and difficulties and have all the knowledge, skills and understanding to be ready for their next steps in learning and, ultimately, to become successful and responsible citizens of the future.
