“CREATE, DISCOVER, SUCCEED TOGETHER”

We have children at the heart of everything we do. At Charter School, everyone values working together to become imaginative and creative learners through inclusion, respect and kindness. We are curious in our discovery of the world and challenge each other to succeed.

Charter School Values:
At Charter we value
• Your child

• Inclusion
• Aspiration
• Kindness
• Enjoyment
• Success
• The School and Locality
• Opinion and beliefs

In our most recent Ofsted inspection (December 2018) Charter is recognised as a good school.

The school was opened in 1994 and is a modern, light and spacious building with fantastic outdoor space including a large field and an all-weather pitch. A purpose built, specialist resource base for children with social communication difficulties, is integral to the school. An independent pre-school operates on the school premises.

We are an active outdoor learning school and previously achieved a Challenge Partners ‘Area of Excellence’ for our Learning in the Natural Environment (LiNE) and we have a qualified Forest School Teacher. We implemented the Outdoor Play and Learning programme (OPAL) in January 2022 achieving an OPaL Gold status in November 2023. We have an established nurture room which, while based on nurture room principles, is unique to Charter.

The school has an active and very supportive parent association (CSFA) who contribute socially and financially to whole school activities and developments.
