At Ickford School our vision is to create a nurturing and inclusive school community where every child is inspired to learn, motivated to achieve their potential and encouraged to show kindness in all they do. We aim to foster confident, curious, and resilient learners who are prepared for the challenges of the future while valuing respect, creativity and collaboration.

We live by our values of Determination, Kindness, Respect and Honesty

 

Behaviour is exemplary and pupils work hard in lessons. They explained to me how the four Ickford values help them behave like an Ickford citizen. Pupils have a deep understanding of respect, equality and tolerance.

Our four chosen values, kindness, respect, honesty and determination, permeate everything that we do and the children take great pride in looking after and supporting each other. We try to do everything to a high standard and maintain high expectations of everyone, both within the immediate school surroundings and in the wider community. Our aim is to ensure that every child leaves here prepared to continue on their educational journey, as well as recognising the importance of being good citizens in today’s diverse and exciting society.

My priority as Headteacher continues to be the safeguarding and wellbeing of both children and staff, fostering a happy, positive and supportive environment where everyone feels safe, valued and able to flourish, personally and academically and that each child leaves Ickford as a confident, resilient learner with strong values.
