The Federation of Longhorsley and Whalton C of E Schools’ Vision
Our schools’ vision starts with our Christian core values of hope, honesty, forgiveness, friendship, trust and love to help all children grow confidently as individuals.
- Hope – seeing the positive or good in everyone/thing
- Honesty – always being truthful
- Forgiveness – letting go of mistakes
- Friendship – being a friend to all
- Trust – in yourself and others
- Love – for each other
We are two caring church schools committed to nurturing each child and inspiring academic aspiration – a love of learning, self-belief and the desire to exceed expectations.
We help each child to flourish in a happy and safe environment within the context of Christian belief. We work with the children, their parents, the Church and the wider community to create education of the highest quality for all. We aim for excellence in intellectual, moral and spiritual development.
’Aspire… Believe… Achieve to be the very best we can be’
