Our Vision & Values

As part of Hope Learning Trust we embrace the Trust vision of ‘serving others, growing together and living life to the full’.  These ten words are powerful as they create the environment for academic excellence and the development of the whole child, both of which have equal priority in our minds.

At Graham School our core values are:

• Honesty
• Empathy
• Aspiration
• Resilience
• Team-work

Our vision is:

• That every member of our community is supported in growing as an individual so that they can achieve their dreams and aspirations
• That we improve the life chances and social capital of all learners through an inclusive approach
• That our community understands the value of education and the importance of embracing opportunities to learn and grow
• That we develop resilient, confident and respectful young people who contribute positively to their communities and who understand their responsibilities as citizens
• That everyone can thrive in a safe, calm and positive learning environment

We will achieve this through:

• A rigorous, broad and varied curriculum which is responsive to the needs of all students and will prepare them in every way for their future
• High quality, inspirational and innovative teaching
• Creative, exciting and memorable opportunities both inside and outside the classroom
• A culture where diversity is embraced, and tolerance and understanding are promoted

At Graham School we aim every day to ‘Grow, Learn and Achieve together’.
