At Cranleigh C of E Primary School, we incorporate our Christian values: friendship, hope, forgiveness, thankfulness, compassion and endurance into all that we do. These values are integrated within our curriculum to equip our learners for an ever changing world. By acknowledging all aspects of every child’s development we can support them to gain confidence and enthusiasm for learning within an appropriate setting for risk taking.
The learning, achievements, attitudes and well-being of every member of our community is considered and celebrated. Our school vision and ethos underpin the fast-paced journey that our team is on, with a strong focus on collaboration and effective pedagogies.
Our coaching and mentoring opportunities allow for professional development at many levels; therefore, whilst experience would be an advantage, it is not essential.
