At Valley Park, our core values of ambition, respect and kindness underpin everything we do. These values shape our vibrant school community and instil a deep sense of pride in being part of the Valley Park family.



Our ambition drives us to set high expectations and support every student in fulfilling their potential. We respect one another's differences and celebrate the diversity that enriches our school. Kindness guides how we treat each other, fostering an inclusive environment where all feel valued. By living these values daily, we create a positive culture that brings out the best in one another.



Our school mantra "We Are Valley Park" encapsulates this ethos. It reminds us that we are all part of one community, united by shared values and a commitment to excellence. Whether student or staff, everyone has an important role to play in upholding our values and sustaining the positive culture that makes Valley Park special.



We believe education goes far beyond just academics. Our Futures curriculum provides a comprehensive programme for students' personal development. It equips them with the skills and mindsets needed to thrive as confident, resilient individuals ready for future success.



Underpinning this is an ambitious, challenging curriculum tailored to meet the needs of all learners. Our dedicated teachers deliver high-quality instruction across all subjects. We have high expectations for what our students can achieve with the right support and nurturing environment.



Just as we expect academic excellence, we also expect our students to conduct themselves with the highest standards of behaviour. Ambition, respect and kindness must be evident in how they treat staff, their peers and the school community. These core values create an atmosphere of mutual understanding and care where all can focus on learning and growth.
