Ethos & Values

"Inspiring Learners, Growing Together"

We provide a high quality, inclusive education based on values which respond to the needs of every child. We provide a safe, secure nurturing environment that promotes high levels of well-being. Through our creative curriculum and bright inviting learning environment we inspire children to become confident, independent individuals with lively enquiring minds and a thirst for learning. Skilled, caring staff lead by example guiding children on their personal aspirational learning journeys through encouragement and support to work together happily and aim high. Assemblies and reflection enhance opportunities for each child to develop understanding and respect for diversity in Britain and the wider world. We work in close partnership with parents/carers, Governor and the local and wider community. Our village community play an important part in our identity and we value the resources available to us locally.

Our schools are rooted in inclusive Christian values to enable all to flourish by building knowledge, confidence and resilience for the future.
