Vision, Aims and Values

The aims, values and vision below have been written by the children, parents, governors and staff. We believe that a shared set of beliefs will ensure that all stakeholders join forces to ensure progression in all areas.

At Ormesby Village Infant and Junior Schools Federation we have a clear vision for the future. It is our vision that our Federation of schools will continue to be a nurturing environment underpinned by strong morals and British values. Embedded throughout our school from our logo to our playground, we are a family community where each child is treated as an individual, and the strongest and most exciting teaching helps them to discover and develop their unique talents and abilities.

We want each child to be happy, self-confident and fulfilled as individuals, as members of our school and as citizens of their home communities and the wider world. We want them to know that they are loved and valued and that they have voices which need to be heard and opinions that matter and will be sought. We want them to flourish in an atmosphere which respects and cherishes their uniqueness. We want them to love learning and to know that they are starting out on a journey full of excitement and possibilities which can last all their lives long.

We want them to find out who they are and what they are worth. Above all, we want to make a difference to their lives so that they in turn can make a difference to the world in which they live. It is our privilege to send our children on to the next stage of their learning journey filled with a spirit of adventure, accomplishment and aspiration and the confidence to take actions and become the best that they can be!

Our Aims
