OUR VALUES:
Resilience We persevere and find creative solutions to challenges.
Integrity We are honest and trustworthy and uphold high standards.
Collaboration We work together and share our skills and knowledge for the benefit of our Trust and beyond.
Excellence We aspire to be exceptional in all we do.
Our values act as a compass. They help us navigate the big decisions and guide our everyday actions - throughout the good and the tough times. They are an integral part of our DNA and help all those connected to our schools know what is expected of them and what they can expect of us.
Our Aims:
- Children that are happy, confident and have a sense of where they are going in life and how they will get there.
- Staff that feel valued, happy and inspired to work as part of our academies with the kudos and rewards that it brings to their work and home life. They feel a strong sense of wellbeing — both towards themselves and their colleagues.
- The latest resources so we are fully equipped in our increasingly digital world.
- A ‘community of practice’ - pooling resources, knowledge and experience to ensure pupils, parents and our local community thrive from our schools.
- Environments that are stimulating, challenging and where children feel it is safe to learn from their mistakes.
- An approach to learning which is child-centred, inclusive and is focused on the development of the whole child, both socially and academically. It is incredibly important to offer an enriching learning experience for children through a broad and balanced curriculum, full of rich experiences and opportunities. Our learning culture is one of pride, self-motivation and resilience. From their start in pre-school or Reception, we encourage children to develop enquiring minds with the independence and determination to succeed at all they set their minds to.
