At Guiseley Primary School our community lives by the values of our Rainbow Code. We believe that every family matters. Our mission as a school is to provide an inclusive, nurturing and challenging environment that will enrich our children's learning, not only for their continuing education, but also provide a foundation of solid values which will guide them throughout life.
At Guiseley Primary School we want to include everyone, which is why we ve used a rainbow as our symbol. 'Every colour under the sun being brought together to make something truly amazing represents our ethos perfectly. The rainbow that sits at the centre of our school badge reflects how these core values are at the heart of everything we do.
R - respect (for all) A - achieve (always do your very best) I - inclusion (we all matter) N - nurture (we care and are considerate) B - belong (it's good to be part of something) O - outstanding (effort and perseverance) W - whole (whole child, whole family, whole community) We are dedicated to continually improving teaching and learning whilst understanding the importance of safeguarding our children's personal, social and emotional well-being.
