Our Values

Respectful

This helps our children be respectful of themselves, each other, the local community and the wider world. They will be respectful of others and their beliefs, and how these have shaped the world they live in today. It helps them to learn how to act and become a good citizen now and in the future.

Resilient

This enables our children to be focused on their task in hand, work hard and never give in. They will always try their best, seek help when tasks are difficult and strive to overcome their own fears. They will grow through reflection and self-evaluation and develop resilience to deal with the demands of modern life.

Caring

This encourages our children to look after one another, themselves, their families, the local community and the wider world. It encourages them to take care of the environment and to be good citizens to all and care for everything.

Creative

This motivates the children to develop their creative side whether it is in the Arts, through Projects (individual, whole school or the community) being more articulate or using their imagination. We want the children to be inspired and express themselves through a range of mediums.
