Our school values are at the core of everything we do. They underpin our teaching and learning, and provide an environment which prepares our pupils as confident, happy citizens. Our aspiration for Shiphay Learning Academy is to enable all children to reach out to their full potential in a safe, welcoming and happy environment. We strive to serve our community and create responsible citizens, who are independent and confident lifelong learners, equipped to meet the challenges of a changing future. We aim for this to be achieved within an inclusive and respecting environment that values every individual, encourages creativeness and celebrates the diversity of our community. The fundamental principles that guide everything we do are our Core Values and also our unwavering belief in Growth Mindset, the belief that everyone can achieve if they believe in themselves. Our curriculum and aspiration are built upon the strong foundation of our Core Values Respect, Aspiration, Creativeness and Contribution and these are the fundamental principles that guide our day-to-day practice.
