Ethos, Vision & Values

Our Ethos:

Within a culture of kindness, tolerance and respect for others to stimulate in all children a love of learning that will last throughout their lifetimes.

Our Values:

The W in TeamWork

We encourage teamwork whilst not abandoning recognition of individual achievement. We believe that creativity and learning can be enhanced by co-operation and by celebrating and sharing in success.

The O in COnfidence

We seek to inspire in all our pupils the confidence to face up to whatever challenges may arise.

The R in Respect

All members of our school community treat others with respect by being kind, helpful and caring and by recognising, accepting and valuing our differences.

The T in HonesTy

Our pupils are encouraged to be honest at all times with others and also with themselves.

The H in EmpatHy

Every day we demonstrate in our relationships the importance of understanding the feelings of others by putting ourselves in their shoes and seeing the world as they see it.

Together they spell W O R T H

These support the British values of democracy, tolerance of and respect for others, the rule of law, sense of community and individual liberty.
