Our aim is to enable students to become:
- successful learners who enjoy learning, make progress and achieve
- confident individuals who are able to live safe, healthy and fulfilling lives
- responsible citizens who make a positive contribution to society
Our purpose is to:
- Share a vision of learning as a lifelong journey: we are all learners
- Engender a positive attitude and commitment to learning: resilient, responsible, reasoning, resourceful, reflective learners
- Pass on valued skills, knowledge and understanding: to prepare children for the opportunities and challenges they face as the next generation
Our agreed school values are:
- Learning: An entitlement to relevant and purposeful learning, high expectations and outcomes, widening horizons and raising aspirations
- Well-being: An ethos of personal development and emotional intelligence, excellent care and guidance, intrinsic motivation to discover routes to happiness and success
- Togetherness: An environment founded on equality and inclusion, rights and responsibilities, an awareness of belonging to our immediate and global communities
We are an educational community where:
- high standards of learning and teaching enable all children to develop as purposeful, independent learners
- we can all feel safe and inspired
- mutual respect and co-operation flourish
- teaching motivates children to achieve highly, reflect on their progress and value their own success
- equality of opportunity is promoted and valued
- there is partnership with families, parents and carers, other professionals and outside agencies to ensure individual needs are met
- all children are supported to make good progress, whatever their individual starting point and needs
- we strive to overcome potential barriers to learning for individuals and groups of pupils
