Ethos & Values

Vision Statement and Values - ‘In Pursuit of Excellence’

Our aims are;

  • To ensure that all students achieve highly and leave us as well educated, healthy, confident individuals with a clear sense of social responsibility and personal integrity.
  • To ensure students have the attributes, skills and qualifications to succeed. We expect our students to be able to thrive in contemporary society as a result of their time with us.
  • That parents send their child to our Trust knowing that that their child will succeed and their well-being is prioritised in an inclusive setting.
  • That staff development and well-being are central to our culture and the success of the Trust.

The school will ensure that all students;

  • Study an appropriately ambitious, broad and balanced curriculum, through which, they develop powerful knowledge, vocabulary, numeracy and literacy skills
  • Develop cultural capital through a range of planned experiences in and beyond school.
  • Achieve qualifications that enable students to take their next steps with confidence.
  • Adopt the school’s core values – Learn Think, Contribute and Care

The school is determined to;

  • Create a culture of fairness and compassion
  • Ensure the highest levels of behaviour, attitude, conduct and respect
  • Provide a rich curriculum that challenges students to think and is delivered by up to date.
  • Ensure a strong partnership between parent, teacher and student
  • Ensure a wide range of enrichment and extra-curricular activities

Our expectation is that the behaviour and actions of Members, Trustees, Governors, staff and students reflect our mission and values daily.
