My priority over the past few years has been to improve the quality of teaching and learning and to open doors for every student that we are privileged to teach . The school has undergone a great deal of change since I arrived in 2018.
Some of these changes have been as a result of our own analysis and reflections on what we needed to do better, some have come about through the amazing new building project, and others have evolved as we have addressed our vision, ethos and purpose as educators of your children. Our Values at Carrington School are our vision for your children.
We want them to ASPIRE ; to want to be the best they can be, to seize opportunities, be prepared to take risks and not be frightened of failure. We want them to INNOVATE ; to think outside the box, be creative and curious, to be proud of who they are and to be able to work both collaboratively and independently.
We want them to show RESPECT ; to be thoughtful and kind citizens who support each other, members of our school and local community.
