E xcellence
The school builds on the qualities and skills which parents have fostered in the child at home. From the beginning staff and governors create a caring and well-organized environment in which each child is valued as an individual and can grow in confidence, motivation and self-belief.
We aim to provide the highest quality of education for all our children, in an environment that is, challenging, motivating, disciplined, caring and moral, where children can acquire the skills and knowledge appropriate to their individual needs through the delivery of a creative curriculum.
We emphasise positive attitudes to learning, which will encourage children to achieve their best in all that they do. We help all children to grow emotionally and to learn that courtesy, good manners and consideration for others are very important qualities. We hope all our children will become happy, responsible, and independent young people.
