Our Ethos and Values

“Through its extremely well-established ethos and climate of honesty, trust and respect, the school has an impressive sense of community, in which all pupils and adults play an equal and important role. Pupils are valued for their contribution to school life, and there is a genuine sense of belonging to the ‘Woodchurch family’. Everyone enjoys being part of the school, including visitors.”

(OFSTED May 2005)

As a school we believe in including our young people in the decision making process and so the Headteacher meets regularly with the School Forum to discuss issues affecting the school. The code of conduct which operates throughout the school has been drawn up in consultation with pupils and is underpinned by our Christian ethos. It is designed to create an atmosphere in which all pupils can make the best of their abilities and is based on common sense and consideration for others
