Our vision is for Whitby Heath children to dream big, believe in themselves and have high aspirations for their future. Our school curriculum and values aim to inspire and motivate children to be the best they can be, setting the foundations for their future.
Our school badge was designed in 2023/24 by our School Ambassdors , who consulted with our children before working with a graphic designer. The tree in the centre of the image takes the form of an arm reaching high - just as our new motto is to 'A.I.M. High'. The 8 leaves represent each of our 8 School Values , each with their own colour.
The tree's roots form a rainbow in the colours of our School Values, representing our inclusivity as a school community because together we are stronger.
