VISION AND VALUES

We are part of The Forest Federation of Soudley, Steam Mills and Woodside Primary Schools and all schools benefit from our partnership; the sharing of resources and expertise.  

Vision

We nurture a love of life, love of learning and mutual respect. We aim to provide a stimulating and challenging environment where everyone is happy, valued and every voice if heard. We want children to leave our schools equipped with the skills to become valued and responsible members of the community.

Respect for ourselves, each other and our environment
 
This School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff, governors and volunteers to share this commitment.
 
 
We will be helpful to all stakeholders and afford them equal kindness, thoughtfulness and support.
