Our Ethos and Values

Every child achieves, belongs and participates, enabling a life of choice and opportunity.

Our aims are simple. We want every child at The Castle School to achieve their true potential, participate fully, and enjoy a strong sense of belonging. We achieve this by delivering high-quality teaching and learning through a broad and balanced curriculum, a safe and structured environment where all students can thrive, and with a ‘can do’ attitude that means every child can and will take part in enrichment. We also encourage personal development and improvement by promoting values that celebrate:

  • Resilience, resourcefulness and responsibility

  • Leadership, loyalty and teamwork

  • Integrity, motivation and independence

  • Trust and respect for each individual 

These are values that enable students to leave school able and motivated to make the best possible contribution to society.
