‘Our vision for Valour Academy is that all children will feel loved, happy and safe.

We will provide each child with many and varied opportunities to develop their character to feel accepted; to develop a sense of belonging; to be driven and resilient and to be inspired and be inspiring.'  

We hope achieve this through the following aims:

• To raise the aspirations of each individual within our school community so everyone strives for personal excellence in everything they do;
• To help students build on their strengths and overcome their weaknesses;
• To prepare each child for the opportunities, responsibilities and experience of life and to develop enquiring minds.
• To encourage children to respect and care for themselves, others and their environment.
• To provide a broad, balanced and creative curriculum that combines excellence in teaching with enjoyment of learning.
• To instil in the children a high level of self-esteem and confidence in their own worth.

Children are at the heart of Valour Academy. All adults know the children and their communities well. All staff are welcoming, friendly,  organised, and supportive, with calm and inviting safe spaces for families and children. They are very clear on the priorities, with developed systems in place to move on strategically. Leadership is very well developed, with future leaders identified to support succession planning. Leaders know where the good practise is and share within the Academy. The very clear systems in place ensure that the Academy is more than ready to support and challenge other schools and their leaders, to improve chances for children and their communities. Well being of staff is a priority alongside the personal development of all children, which is interwoven into everything they carry out.
