Our Aims & Values

 

Love, Contribution, Courage, Flourishing

These core values are the pillars on which our schools and nurseries are built. We call them our Foundation Stones.

 

We encourage everyone within the Foundation to love each other with integrity, openness, and generosity. By embracing vulnerability, we foster deeper connections and a more profound love for others.
We acknowledge that we have a wider responsibility to one another to be the best version of ourselves, through rest and reflection, in order to fully show love in this way. Our mission is that all people within our community will feel valued, respected and genuinely loved.

We believe that every individual has something unique and valuable to offer. With a spirit of humility, we encourage our pupils to contribute meaningfully to one another, their community, and the wider world.

 

 

Courage is a quality that everyone can display, regardless of how strong or vulnerable they may feel. Our goal is to ensure that each individual feels fully accepted for who they are. With this foundation of acceptance, we guide and inspire them to show courage—whether by trying new things, taking risks, or driving positive change.
Every day, courage is all around us, reflected in countless acts big and small.

 

 

Our aspiration is for both staff and pupils to lead full, fulfilling lives where they flourish and reach their potential. Flourishing is the cornerstone that anchors our values of love, courage, and contribution.
We are deeply committed to excellence in teaching, maintaining high standards, fostering inclusivity, and ensuring no one is left behind. By loving others sincerely, empowering individuals to be courageous, and encouraging contributions that extend beyond oneself, we believe every member of our community can truly flourish.
