These values are promoted across the federation and act as a basis for all our learning. We aim to provide a broad, engaging and stimulating education for all our children combining a strong focus on learning skills with a joy in achieving to a very high standard in all aspects of learning. We aim for high standards at all times and in all aspects of school life, and expect excellent and responsible behaviour from all members of our school community, adults and children alike.
