Our Vision and Values

We expect our staff and students to support our vision in every way to help students achieve excellence and have the correct skill sets to succeed when the leave the academy. 

Our Values outline below are at the centre of everything we do within our behaviour culture at the school. 

  • Organised – BECAUSE we are then ready to accomplish more
  • Responsible - BECAUSE the only thing we can control is our own actions
  • Considerate – BECAUSE others feelings are as important as our own 
  • Hardworking – BECAUSE talent alone is not enough to be successful
  • Ambitious – BECAUSE we want to be better today than yesterday
  • Resilient – BECAUSE it empowers us to overcome the challenges we face
  • Determined – BECAUSE it increases our chances of success
  • Self-Confident – BECAUSE we believe in our own ability 

Orchards Values

Our Values are consistently reiterated in school through display, rewards and personal development.

We have a weekly focus value on which we teach the students the why behind our values in our community briefings.

Our personal development programme which runs during form time and lessons also follows our value of the week.
