A loving, family school, respecting and caring for our world and everyone in it. Love is patient, love is kind. It always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. At Otley All Saints, love, kindness and respect are at the heart of all we do. We are an inclusive and welcoming school where every member of our community is known, valued and nurtured to flourish.
Our children learn to embrace the wider world with confidence and compassion. Our Christian values are at the heart of all we do in school. Alongside our British values, they shape our ethos, provide a template for our life together in our school community and are the focus for our daily act of worship.
We believe that if everyone follows these values they will grow up to become model citizens in modern Britain. We have adopted core Christian values which run through our school. Each half-term we consider one value in particular depth and this is a constant presence when working and living with one another in school.
These core values are: The school council is elected via a democratic process the children vote for their class representatives.
