At Saltdean we take our children on a creative voyage of discovery with a rich and engaging curriculum. Together, our values set the compass that enables them to navigate a diverse world, to be ready for the next stage of their journey, and to make a difference. Our new Saltdean Values are really important to everyone in our community.
They define what it means to be part of Saltdean Primary School, whether as a pupil (present or past); a member of staff; or parent or carer. You may notice that the initial letters of the values spell BRICC (Belonging; Resilience; Integrity; Consideration; Curiosity), and we see these BRICC bricks as the building blocks of everything we do at Saltdean. You can.
