Ethos and Values

Our core school values are to help our pupils become well rounded, ambitious children who strive to reach their potential through the exciting opportunities and experiences we provide. This is reflected in our school motto ‘Dream Big, Achieve Together’. We teach our children to develop life skills such as resilience, resourcefulness, relationships, reflectiveness and risk taking to achieve success in learning.

Our school core values are closely aligned with those of the Multi Academy Trust to which we belong. The academy is part of Reach South Academy Trust which includes 13 Primary, Secondary and Special educational settings across 3 regions of the South West.
