Do everything in love (1 Corinthians 16:14):
In our caring community, we treat one another as we hope to be treated.
Everyone is valued.
Everyone is nurtured.
Everyone is encouraged to be the best they can be.

As a school, we have high expectations and aspirations for all our pupils to ensure an effective learning experience and the highest possible outcomes that will prepare and enhance our pupils for their next journey and beyond. Our Christian values, ‘Trust’, ‘Love’ and ‘Compassion’ and ‘Respect’ underpin all that we do in our school.
Our vision, ‘Do everything in love,’ also recognises the importance of celebrating everyone who learns and works here and the need to work collaboratively and inclusively in the diverse cultural world that we live in.
