OUR AIMS, VISION AND ETHOS

Waddesdon Village Primary School is a Pathway to Excellence

Our vision is centred on a commitment to excellence in learning and to high expectations. We aim to prepare every child for the challenges and changes of the future by giving them the opportunity to achieve the highest standards in their development.  We will provide a learning environment where each individual is valued and encouraged to give their best.

We are an inclusive school and every child is celebrated for their uniqueness. We work hard to ensure that we educate and care for the 'whole child' and that their needs are identified and addressed through personalised learning.

We also promote the key British Values of Democracy, Freedom of Speech, Tolerance and the Rule of Law through our assemblies and the curriculum.

We welcome visits to our school to see our values and ethos in action!
