SMITHILLS SCHOOL
SUCCESS FOR ALL
Vision and Values
The vision a school has and the values it promotes might seem remote to some. At Smithills, however, our vision and values are at the very heart of everything we do. If you want to get to know us as a school, the way we work as a family and as an organisation, then this is what you need to know:
Our Vision
SUCCESS FOR ALL
Success for all is all about progress. This is progress in every lesson, every day for every pupil.
The idea of success is all about the development of every pupil. To give the pupils the skills, knowledge, confidence and self-respect to be successful and an active members of a modern British society. We put our pupils’ well-being, safety and happiness first. At Smithills we have wonderful opportunities for all our pupils to grow: the bands and music; performing arts; outdoor pursuits; mountain biking; fishing; visits abroad; Duke of Edinburgh’s Award; clubs and societies to name but a few.
Our Values
Our values govern what we do and the way we all work and behave all the time.
Our school values followed several consultation sessions involving a range of different groups. Our three core values are:
INDEPENDENCE
