Vision
All Astrea children will learn, thrive and lead successful lives. Working together, Astrea schools will tackle head on the barriers that stand in the way of children’s success. We will do this through a relentless commitment to a brilliant education, a focus on inclusion for all, and by delivering on our promise of broad opportunities and supporting and sustaining thriving communities.
Values
- Scholarship – We will be informed by the best of academic and organisational thinking and research, using this where we can and expanding it where possible.
- Curiosity – We will ask searching questions, not take things on face value, seek out the best of what is known and engage in appreciative enquiry.
- Tenacity – We will deliver on our promises and see things through to completion. We will embody pace, urgency and determination in our focus on improving outcomes for children and on our own performance
- Respect – We expect to treat each other with respect, in all forms of communication and interaction, and we expect everyone to embrace and celebrate difference; we also expect respect of the academy and community environment
- Responsibility – we accept responsibility and commit to ensuring we do not place barriers in the way of students achieving the very best outcomes they can, irrespective of their back-story; we expect students to also accept responsibility for their actions
Purpose
Our purpose is to give all Astrea students an advantage throughout life, setting them up to be accomplished and competitive in all that they do. We have this ambition for all students, whilst recognising that the most disadvantaged amongst them will benefit most from our work.
