Our Aims:
Curledge Street Academy aims to create and learning environment which enables children to have an ‘flying start to lifelong learning’ and to empower all children to achieve their personal best and be aspirational for their future role within the global community.
To become a ‘Lifelong Learner’ in the 21st century, our children will need to be resilient and confident individuals, with an ability to relate to others and communicate their thoughts and ideas with humility and understanding.
To this end we have four key values at the heart of our curriculum:
Our ethos value is one of respect. We encourage all members of our school community to be respectful to others. To empathise and value one another’s opinions and beliefs.
