Our aim as a school is for every child to become confident, creative, compassionate and curious learners and leaders who have a passion to live life to the full and change the world for the better.
We support the development and understanding of British Values in a range of ways throughout the year so that they are an integral part of school life.

• School Council display board to include dates of meetings, who’s who, key roles & responsibilities.
• School Council to have their own Action Plan for the term they are in office.
• School Council feedback to their class after each council meeting.
• Each term, the previous school councillors hand over their tabards in a ceremony during worship time.
• Develop the links between Governors and School Council.
