Strategic Priorities:

Our vision will be delivered via our four core strategic aims. Everything we do should be ultimately focused on doing these four things well:

• We will provide an ambitious, inspirational, bespoke education, setting the foundation for the future and ensuring our pupils and students are ready for the world.
• We will provide a bespoke short break setting, to support children and young people locally to access their community and opportunities to develop readiness for adulthood and independence.
• We will deliver high standards and value for money from our support services, resources, estate and technology, ensuring economies of scale and a commitment to developing practices that help the environment and reduce our carbon footprint.
• We will invest in and support our people, enabling and exploiting opportunities for collaborative, continual professional development, sharing of expertise and best practice.
