Our Ethos
We are a friendly and welcoming school where everyone feels safe to discover, learn, and be creative.
Our vision is to inspire every child to become a resilient, respectful, and successful lifelong learner, taking ownership of their learning and showing courage and perseverance when faced with challenges.
Scholars' Education Trust Vision
As we are part of Scholars' Education Trust, we have a shared vision and values, which is to produce responsible young people of whom we can all be proud. In our school community, we have high aspirations for every individual.

The ACE underpins everything that we do and provides a secure basis for all that we strive to accomplish.
