School Values

Our Vision is to work in collaboration with all stakeholders, including the local community, as the school of choice in the local area, to provide a fully inclusive, world-class education: giving all learners a strong foundation of knowledge and skills; allowing them to feel valued and supported; inspiring them to achieve their full potential to become successful learners, responsible citizens and confident individuals.

Wildmoor Heath School Values

Our values (Respect, Empathy, Aspirations, Courage and Honesty) are part of our motto Reach for the Stars.

We celebrate our values every day in school and ensure that they are upheld by all our learners and staff. We focus on one value per half-term and at the end of each year, we review our values to ensure they are relevant in the ever-changing world. We support our learners to develop the behaviours and learning attitudes that are consistent with our values.

VALUE	EXPECTATIONS AND PUPIL BEHAVIOUR
RESPECT	We respect and uphold the rights of children all over the world. We will respect ourselves, others, school property, the environment and authority. We know and demonstrate our school values in all we do. We are tolerant of each other’s’ ideas, opinions, faiths and ethnicities. We welcome diversity in our local and the wider community. We will not tolerate discrimination. We will earn trust and respect by acting with integrity. We will take pride in our uniform, equipment, school work and the achievements of ourselves and others.
EMPATHY	We will consider other people’s feelings before saying or doing things.We value everyone in our school as an individual. We will work, learn and play together. There is no ‘I’ in team. We celebrate the diversity or backgrounds, cultures and religions in our school, local community and the wider world, We support others by being kind, caring, helpful and understanding. We are learning to be good listeners – to stop, listen and reflect. We will solve friendship issues with friends and help others to do the same.
ASPIRATIONS	We aim high, having personal goals and strong role models. We reflect on what we have learnt and know the next steps for improvement. We ask how to improve our work and strive for the very best. We take pride in our work and always present it neatly. We are happy to edit and improve our work to make it our best. We take responsibility for our own goals and progress. We work hard to be ready for the next stage in our education and to learn about future careers. We are curious and ask questions. We are proud of our own and others’ achievements, yet humble and kind always.
COURAGE	We will challenge ourselves and take measured risks in our learning. We are not afraid to make mistakes. We know that everyone learns from mistakes – this is natural and develops us. We try new things, even when they are difficult. We are resilient and keep on trying. We know that regular practice is important to achieve. We know right from wrong and do the right thing, even when it is the difficult thing to do.
HONESTY	We will be honest to adults, each other and ourselves. We will tell the truth and admit when we are wrong, especially when it is hard to do so. We know that everyone is unique with different personal strengths and weaknesses. We are not afraid to ask for help in order to develop our skills. We know right from wrong and will always choose the right thing to do. We will speak up when we witness any form of discrimination.
