Welcome to our school. I am very proud to share with you our school ethos and values. We are a forward thinking school where children are valued, motivated and challenged to be the very best that they can be. Our children are at the heart of everything we do. We want our children to be happy, confident, resilient; equipped with the skills they need, both now and in the future.

Our broad and engaging curriculum is designed to foster a love of learning in all children, wherever their strengths may lie. All of the children experience success during their time at Courthill and they are rightly proud of their achievements. Our culture is one which embraces a growth mindset whereby everyone recognises that we all have endless potential, providing we work hard; practise new skills; act on constructive feedback and understand that it’s not that ‘we can’t do it’, but rather that ‘we can’t do it yet.’

Our dedicated team work hard to know and understand each individual child. We believe that children learn best when they feel secure, valued and have the opportunity to be as active in their learning as possible. We ensure that there is physical activity in every lesson. Every Friday is ‘Fun, Fit, Friday’ and we all wear our sports clothes to school. As a result of our learning ethos, children go on to thrive emotionally, academically and socially.

Through our Values (Courage, Curiosity, Responsibility, Kindness) and an ambitious curriculum that is rooted in developing life-long learners, we create children who believe in their own potential, achieve their goals and ultimately shine for all to see.

You are most welcome to come and visit our school to see it in action and gain a true picture of our values and aspirations for the children.

With very best wishes

Mrs Ali Carter
Headteacher
