Statement of purpose

Aysgarth provides its pupils with the opportunity to develop into confident, ambitious and resilient children who will thrive here, at their next school and in the wider world.

Values

The statement of purpose is underpinned by the School’s values of respect, endeavour and courage.

Detail

Aysgarth is home to a close, happy community of children and staff. We bring out the best in each child by providing a caring, stimulating and safe environment.

We will achieve this by:

  • Attracting and retaining high quality and enthusiastic staff. 
  • Teaching a broad curriculum and establishing lifelong learning skills.
  • Challenging the pupils to develop their character through the teaching of Christian belief.
  • Providing a wide range of opportunities beyond the classroom.
  • Working closely with parents and guardians across all elements of their child’s education.
  • Helping to identify the best future school for every child.
  • Developing partnerships within and beyond the Aysgarth community.
  • Remaining financially secure so as to enable reinvestment in both people and facilities.
