Our Values and Ethos

 

Cricket Green School is a community in which we aim to educate and develop children, in order that they lead independent, fulfilled and happy lives. We aim to enable pupils to make informed choices and to develop greater levels of independence together with an increased awareness of themselves as learners, as individuals and as members of their local community. With this aim in mind, we work hard to ensure that each pupil has many opportunities during their school life to develop skills, qualifications and confidence.

We have a highly-skilled staff of teachers, assistants, lunchtime supervisors and office staff.
