River Mill Values
At River Mill we believe that children learn best when there is a strong partnership between home and school. At River Mill we:
- Have high expectations of what all pupils can achieve through our broad and engaging curriculum
- Enable pupils to have a positive mindset, ready to take on new challenges
- Work hard to help children become confident, motivated individuals that know how to take care of their physical and mental health
- Provide a range of learning experience that allow pupils to deepen their knowledge and understanding
- Create a safe learning environment where children develop self-respect and respect for others, resilience and integrity
- Work alongside our families and other stakeholders to ensure the best for our children
Our school values are at the core of everything we do. They underpin our teaching and learning and characterise the culture of our school.
