2. Values & Ethos Supporting young people to grow in a vibrant and inclusive learning community
Providing our pupils with high quality and holistic learning experiences is something we strive for, reflect on and evaluate continuously.
The children are at the centre of everything we do, promoting high aspirations and achievement through quality teaching and learning. We value and celebrate collaboration and the leadership of learning through empowerment, and uphold values that impact positively on our school communities. We aim to fulfil this vision by:
Raising standards of attainment and recognition of achievement by providing a varied, challenging and stimulating curriculum with an emphasis on the needs of the whole child.
Promoting high expectations, resilience and continuous development of all school community members within an environment that is sensitive to a range of learning styles.
Providing a happy, secure and nurturing environment for all, where equality, honesty, fairness and respect are valued and practised.
Developing and sustaining an active partnership between schools, children, parents and our communities.
Supporting children in developing confidence, positive attitudes, a healthy lifestyle and lifelong learning skills that will enable them to be effective contributors and active, responsible citizens.
