Ethos and Vision


Our vision for the school and also our values. A summary of our vision and values is found below:

Our motto to support the vision for our school. ‘Nurturing Creative Thinkers’ . The document below gives a brief exploration of why we have adopted this motto for our school to encompass our values and what we stand for as a school.

Our Bible Verse

I have come in order that you might have life – life in all its fullness. (John 10:10)

Our Values:

At the heart of our community are five core values – Trust, Honesty, Perseverance, Respect, and Responsibility. These values are woven into every aspect of school life, guiding how we learn, work, and grow together. We celebrate and uphold them daily, nurturing a culture where every individual feels supported to flourish.

What do our children think about our school?

Each year we gather the thoughts and aspirations of our children in Year 6. This is known as our exit questionnaire. Here is our most recent exit questionnaire. We believe it will give you an insight into our children, reflecting our vision and ethos.
