Mission Statement

Working together to ensure that all children will reach their full potential in a happy, caring, safe and respectful environment.

Aims

We strive for educational excellence, with a strong focus on teaching and learning within a creative and rich learning environment. We promote a vibrant learning culture for children and staff, where we all work hard together as a strong team to make a difference.

Ethos

We have a strong school ethos, where all members are valued, honest, tolerant, have social responsibility, and we promote high expectations of pupils in terms of learning and behaviour.
