Our Aims and Values

MISSION

Our Quest

To make the most out of every moment in guiding our children to not only become great pupils, but more importantly great people.

VALUES

The Town Close Way

Our aim at Town Close is that everyone:

• Cares for our School and wider community
• Acts positively, honestly and with ambition
• Respects themselves and others
• Enjoys and celebrates learning
• Supports others to be their best

The Town Close Way is a set of values that underpins school life and our community, giving a framework to the spirit that makes Town Close such a special place to grow up in. It is fully expected that these values act as a signpost for both children and adults across all of their endeavours at School.

From Nursery up, our children are explicitly instructed in the importance of these values through their interactions with teachers during learning, across events, Bird Family meetings, form time, tutor groups, house meetings, and though the example set by our community.

A reward system linked to The Town Close Way recognises our pupils for actively demonstrating each of these values in their day to day School life whilst helping all of our children, from Nursery to Year 8, understand and appreciate the importance of each attribute as they grow into not only great pupils but, more importantly great people.
