Ethos & Values

"Attitude Determines Altitude"

Attitude Determines Altitude Inclusion Respect for others Tolerance

RE is delivered through lessons, assemblies and extracurricular activities that value and respect all our children and their families so that everyone feels able to participate. Parents/carers have the right to withdraw their child from Religious Education and collective worship; the headteacher would value a discussion about this before a final decision is made on an individual basis and to discuss alternative provision for those pupils.
