Everyone at Valley Road believes in 'Success for All'. We have high expectations and work hard to make sure everyone feels welcome, safe, valued and included. Relationships are the heart of the school; we listen, treat each other equally with respect and tolerance, and form one big, diverse family.

Our children are at the heart of our curriculum, and our vision is that they are the best versions of themselves. We believe that the central aspect to achieving this, is making sure we foster pupil’s well-being, so they believe in themselves, and they can achieve goals, both academic and personal. It is our responsibility to make sure every child develops the personal attributes of kindness, integrity, generosity and honesty, to help them to grow up, into well rounded, successful and happy adults, with an understanding of healthy relationships.

Our school motto is ‘Success for All’.  Our vision is that all pupils, regardless of ability, experience a broad, balanced, ambitious and stimulating curriculum, rich in first- hand experiences. This curriculum celebrates their local heritage.  We want all children to be prepared for life; to be proud of who they are, where they come from and what they can achieve. The curriculum provides all pupils' with the skills, knowledge and understanding of their world ready for the next part of their educational journey.
