Values, Vision & Mission Statement

Dear Children

At Cledford we believe that every one of you can succeed.  We think you are all special and that you all have gifts that make you unique.

The ‘3Rs’ at Cledford are Respect, Responsibility and Resilience and we expect everyone to have those values.

We want you to achieve the best you possibly can – but that means supporting each other and understanding each other’s feelings as well as being good at reading or writing or maths.  We want you to be safe, confident and happy.

We will teach carefully so that everyone can do well and we’ll be thoughtful about how we speak to you and help you. We will try to have some fun every day, we’ll show you how to work together as a team and how to include everyone’s ideas.

We will only teach things that improve your learning and we’ll try to make them the things you are really interested in. 

We want you and your parents to aim high.

Our values

At Cledford we believe that every child can succeed. Our diverse community is built on the values we share – Respect, Responsibility and Resilience, whilst celebrating our differences - the gifts that make everyone unique.

We are passionate about achieving outstanding outcomes for all but committed to educating the ‘whole child’.  We want our children to be socially responsible and emotionally literate; we want them to be safe, confident and happy.

We are an inclusive school with a nurturing approach to getting the best out of everyone.  Having fun is important to us, as well as teamwork and collaboration.

Our creative curriculum is based on the things that really work for our children.

We want our pupils to aspire to the highest achievements and our parents to be ambitious for their children.
